An interesting idea.

Maybe this is a good time to remind Volks that John Meeks has already
created a site with excellent How-To Guides contributed by several members
of the list.

http://vw.upnorth.net/index.phtml?catid=74

We  just need to add to that base until all the sections are filled.
Checking randomly just now I noticed that there was nothing under "Lower
Ball Joints".

I know that Paul Guzyk just shared a great illustrated lesson on just that
topic, but it wasn't submitted to the BTDT files.

What do you think Paul?

Seeya, Jake
