If you want help, get with guys in this sport. Ie: go to a ride, even if it is in your car. Socialize with them, offer to help THEM in their shop. Put in a couple hundred hours with THEM, you will learn the ropes. Then you can say to them you need a little help. They can talk you through your situation, or even go help you turn wrenches.

Or, just take it to a shop and pay like many do.

There is no free lunch.

Truth! You live in Jacksonville. The SRRS race at Chocco is coming up. Be there. Look at rigs. Take pictures of suspension setups. And if the owner looks like he wants to talk, ask him a question or two, but don't drive em crazy.

And bring beer. Lots of beer. Fajitas, bbq or burgers wouldn't hurt either.

Which is why you should come to offroad events and meet people.

Keep up.

I moved down to Alabama about 3 years ago don't know anyone who wheels. Started going to the "events" most of the guys will talk your ear off about what they did. The best line I got was. I asked you mind if I look under your buggy. He replied. I don't give a shat, just don't get any ideals, they are all wrong.
Don't trust a one legged drunk guy, his **** keeps rolling over. :flipoff1:
