I swear. Andy is the man. He makes this look so easy. I have learned a lot by watching these vids and just the way he explains everything. That's why I look something up to do to my 2013 explorer..I always find 1A auto and look for Andy. Thank you.

A lot simpler than I thought it would be! Torque specs & socket sizes were a major plus!! Thanks!👍
