Brief Description:  Broken Swaybar needed changing

This is one of those events in life that rob the build time on the airplane. My wife got her oil changed on her car and they informed her the front swaybar was broken. The quote to have the repair shop fix it for parts and labor was $500 + . Well Rock Auto had the part for $86.00 plus $15 shipping for an OEM part. Well, being cheap and wanting to divert any funds to things other than car repairs...I ordered the part from Rock Auto and changed it myself in about 2.5 hours for a total cost of about $100.00.....that means I made almost $200 per/hour doing the job myself!

That was worth the time of diverting from the build.....now back to building!!
