I'd really have to have asked why he didn't catch it in the first
place. And although the sounds like a good outcome, my rear end did not
make a barely noticeable, "you gotta listen hard to hear it" noise when
they installed the new rear, it made zero, just like the original. It
just sounds like he's guessing at the adjustment.
