I used to get frustrated as well with stuff like that. Then one day, I noticed the "kid" I asked for help in a store was very nervous about my request. He was trying hard to help but obviously didn't know the answer. I kind of put myself in his shoes and realized I was young once and didn't know everything either. Still don't. :lol:
Now, I always give them the opportunity to help but don't get all riled up if they can't. Many times, if the "kid" seemed interested, I've explained what the purpose of what I was looking for. Just recently, I saw a salesman in Sears trying to help a guy buy a torque wrench and the guy kept talking about in-lbs, confusing the sales guy who didn't have an "inch-pound" wrench that would go that high. I explained how to convert to ft-lbs, and they both thanked me.
When I was in my teens, I wouldn't have know what calipers were either. :lol: I find life much easier if I try to spread a little cheer and don't walk around with a chip on my shoulder, itching to get riled up at any little thing.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
