4WD or normal car lol
doing the 4WD work has opened my eyes up a lot more to new skill sets and aspects of fabrication, my boss is a structural engineer so ive been able to learn so much more then i already knew just doing car audio and custom work.

Oh righto. I've just finished my apprenticeship as an aircraft maintenance engineer. I've tool skills from it, but not car related stuff.

hand tool skills are adaptable across any industry.
just a slight change in process and proceedure but with the knowledge and experience u have you would go fine changing field.
you could potentially look at a switch to aeronautical engineering to get more electrical orientation to compliment your current trade and then look at a career with the RAAF (i was offered aeronautical engineering majoring in Avionics with the Navy on helicopters and then after my 6 years going over to RAAF to work on jets).

Oh really. As cool as it would be to work on jets I think I would prefer to stay in the airline side of things. And stay as a mechanical rather than avionics. I like working on the gas turbines to much haha.

i like to see that you have your path and your sticking to it. drive and ambition are needed in a job but loving your job makes it all so much easier.

Ordered K&N drop in air filter off Amazon - and for ~$57 delivered it's roughly similar in cost as OEM from Mitsubishi.
