Well I'm not close but, a blue tarp strategically placed and a couple of good drop light will keep out the weather and keep you warm and semi-dry......

You don't necessarily need a HUGE one. Just on that will make a big enough lean-to for you to work in. bungee it to the bed rails and then down to the ground behind you about 6' or so. The area could be closed off enough that the heat from a drop light will warm it up a bit too.

I got the passenger side fixed and now its onto the drivers side. I'm not sure what the reason is but both rear cylinders were leaking fluid. usually its only one until u fix it then the other goes.

Glad you got it done.

Nature can really slow you down when she wants to..... it once took me 45 min to change a fuel filter. the Temperature was -42*F at the time though......
