Robert: al isn't on this list much anymore with other things going on , but I have his cell phone number if you need it. If you can get to Cedar Falls /Waterloo, we'll both help!!! I have floor jack and tools and some space to work on it. Al has a shop in downtown Waterloo, if you need multi day storage. He's a free lance electrician by trade, but dabbles in many venues.
