None of the OP’s video was complicated. It simply takes more time.
"Longer but easier" route is a common tactic with working on vehicles. Even if it's possible to use a crazy combination of extensions, wobbles, a shop-modified wrench and a mirror to get to a fastener, sometimes it's just easier to just drop the transmission...:lol: In the case of the OP, a strut compressor would mean not having to remove all of those parts but brings its own dangers and some mechanics simply don't want to use them if avoidable. Also, if you are at the mileage to replace shocks and struts, go ahead and replace ball joints, bushings, and sway bar end links too (unless you have a GM then you are buying new lower control arms anyway).

A few websites mention fertilizer eats up the deck as well not sure if that is true.
Definitely true, fertilizers use ammonia and potassium chloride which are very corrosive to steel. Eats aluminum too so a cast aluminum mower deck won't last long if you are mowing with fertilizer down. I use a lanolin-based corrosion inhibitor spray, started using it on my truck when I move to PA to keep road salt from rusting stuff for the few years I was there. Worked very well so I keep finding uses for it.

I disagree. I’ve turned a lot of wrenches on GMC stuff and compared to Ford, it’s unbelievably better.
GM's stuff today is absolutely no better. No parts, engines failing, built-in obsolescence. At least with older (pre-2007) trucks there is something worth mauntaining and parts are still easy to come by, just going to leak oil everywhere.

That dumbass doesn't know they make compressor tools for struts, pretty much every OEM that uses struts makes it so that you are either dissassembling the control arms or buying such a tool. At least Ford uses control arms with replaceable ball joints, GM rivets the ones for the lowers in...:lol:
Your yard full of clover? My Honda HRN is on its 10th season, steel deck, and barely even surface rust under the deck. I try not to mow when the grass is any kind of damp and if there's a bit a clover I'll spray off the underside. I spray it with a coating of corrosion inhibitor after I set it up for storage at the end of each season too.
Looked at them but if you get the base model it's the 163cc engine and it's a lousy engine for how much you'll spend. The other two models at least have the 190cc B&S but they are still very expensive for what you get. If I had to replace my Honda right now, I think I'd get the Echo walk-behind, same 190cc engine and a steel deck but it's a heavier duty machine all around and still get a 5-year residential warranty as the Toro but spend a bit less.
ETA: Stihl has gas walk-behinds now, might be worth checking out if you are looking into the upper-end scale of these things.

Only someone like you would be too stupid and dishonest to understand the context that these loons operate under wrt civil disobedience involves property destruction and physical assault. Much like that LWNJ loser lawyer that got busted for torching a police vehicle, there is no First Amendment protection to such acts.

How do you feel about them being masked and unidentifiable?
Given the obvious potential for violence by people like you? Easily justified. Maybe if you pathetically poorly educated, dishonest, morally bankrupt sacks of shite didn't resort to throwing violent tantrums then they wouldn't feel the need to protect their identities.

That's all that matters, she tried to hit him and he defended himself. The pseudo-intellectual vomitus of OP's like this are useless.

Wrong, the public at large is cheering for these agents and defending themselves against violent, unhinged, poorly educated LWNJ's. I hope more of you get the consequences you deserve.

No level of evidence matters to the Left. She could have stepped out pointing a gun at the agent and they still would say she was murdered.
