To day was the day to take the 3.91's out and put my 3.23's back in. with my brother in law in the mountains I needed a helper, so I turned to my 9 year old son Brett. He "manned" the jack to lift the center up into place so I could slid it onto the studs. He got this big smile when I asked him if he would like to help and I would need him under the car with me. here is the pic of us working together.

When I think he's capable , I talk my 10 year old son Jed through repairs/projects on my Demon.He's changed starters,adjusted the valves,changed spark plugs etc..The big payoff was when I had injured my arm at work and he did a comlete rear brake job while I watched.I love the confidence it builds plus, its awesome quality time.Its great to see the same is happening with you two.
