Been wrenching professionally for 20+ years and I still to this day always have that little tiny voice in the back of my head... did you torque it correctly? what assembly order was that supposed to be? etc. etc. etc. lol But only when ever it's on my own stuff.
Was just surprised enough that after 45k on it the main shaft still had a run out of .001". So at least the large bearing in there is still holding up well. Seems like every time I start setting aside money for paint, new cams or anything else something big fails. When it is all said and done I spent over a grand on parts/tools. But can only imagine what the stealership would have charged. So it was worth it.
