Replaced my steering stabilizer. Big help comes in small packages!

This weekend my son and I replaced a very worn out steering stablizer. Little man chose to go with the PRO COMP ES2000. I thought it was a good choice and now my boy and I can enjoy a better ride. Always a diligent assistant, my junior Toyota tech took the time to make sure the lug nuts were tight before we hit the road.

Figure I'll teach him early, since this will be his ride in 14 years...you know it will still be running because it's a TOYOTA!!!

No but he was told many times to stop hitting the side of the truck with the wratchet. Also I made sure the socket was way bigger than the lug nut!!

How'd you get him to not walk off with the tools-and bolts and nuts and parts- and forget where he left them? I'm starting to think duct tape is the answer.....and not on my tools, either.


I just need to find a 5 year old sized space on the garage wall. Hmmmmm...

I talk about duct tape all the time, now more than ever since he gets outof the crib! Yes it was a struggle to keep track of all the tools! That was Moms job, finding tools and dragging him out from underneath the truck.
