Do you really have to pull of the entire front end?

you can do it w/out taking the front end completely off BUT i like to do it that way because there is more room to work and see which i like.

BTW EVERYONE! I am in the process of editing a slowed down ACTUAL DIY video for you all. Should be done later today.

i'm pretty sure that you could do it fast but the big question would be would you be able to do it right. i highly doubt you could be that focused while you're jacked up like that. but that's just my personal opinion
