    It is a pain at times, but most of our work is contract. At 1/5 the cost to rebuild we save a lot of money. Plus I am learning skills that a lot of people don't have.

    Interesting. Do you guys rebuild them at the shop? We'd have a guy do that full time during the summer months....

    First rebuild I usually bring to the shop so I can press bearings out. From then on, they can be easily rebuilt in the field.
