and you get easy access to everything. Thing is, I really have kept up on PM. In fact, I just had the entire front end apart a few weeks ago for some other maintenance. For me, it isn't really worthwhile other than the fact I may have spent just as long fighting hardware, room, and angles long enough to justify.

I look at it this way, at least everything will go back in even cleaner than it already was with the added piece of mind knowing I got anything needed done.

I'll snap some real pics after I clean and inspect everything before it goes back in.
