Re: May Install Meet - May 27
Ok.... I have the tie rod popper, 2 straps for hubs, and the rest of the tools and ish to do all this work, BUT I predict a severe shortage of jack stands. I have 2. I know rob has "1 1/2", but with 4 or 5 cars that need underside work, you guys are gonna have to bring them. I am not touching anyone's car unless its on jack stands or the ground... I would guess that sentiment would be similar for the rest of us getting underneath cars... its common sense.
Its also going to be a big help if you guys bring tools. At least basic sockets and what not. I realize that not everyone has torque wrenches and specialty tools... we can pass those around. But one 19mm socket and 5 suspension jobs is going to be a major pain in the ***.

I've got a torque wrench, a few 19mm sockets as well. I have all the tools needed to swap a motor if needed.
And I'm ignoring Rob :P
Ian, we'll get a look at it if I'm able to come so don't worry.

Lol yea maybe I should since I haven't been to the gym hardcore in a while... back is thrown off... I think I pinched a nerve it's been like this for months. Every time I sneeze I get funnybone feelings down both legs.
Eddie is so hot. *sigh* I want him......BAD

Should be the same concept.... find the filter, find the drain bolt, undo both, replace and add oil. Whats it take 6 quarts?
Oh yeah... depending on how well I can get the car running, I may still need a ride. Its getting tuned the 29th, but if I can get the car running good enough, I may drive it up.... definitely a game time call.

Well I may be a little limited in what I can do that day. I might be having a small out patient procedure. I should be able to walk around and do every day things but not a lot stress/time on my feet. I DEFINTELY want you peeps to come over and do whatever you need to do.
Again, take or BBQ?

Wait... does that mean I have to fix your car by myself??????
I vote BBQ, there's a supermarket right across the street, everybody bring like 20 bucks in bills smaller than a 20, we'll take a collection and go score a ton of food, some beer, and some juice boxes.
