His name is Alex
Andy, should I come Friday night to pull the car apart because dropping off the ball joints will take a day to put in at the shop? What shop did you go to? Is it open Saturdays?

There's a machinist down in the auto-plex area in rockville, kinda by car toys 2, by the airpark. Not sure if he's open saturday, I'll have to find out. We can do Friday night but it may be better to do Thursday night, then you can drop em off Friday and we can put it back together Saturday...

I think my craftsman jack has us covered but bring stands if you got em. As for food, we're going to make a run once everyone arrives, just bring cash with you.

Andy, I didn't get any ball joints, so I am going to hold off on changing them. Paul recently purchased a press so I may end up doing them at his house in the future. I'll see you guys Sat.

Remove intake/exhaust manifolds
Pull off alternator
Remove t-belt
Remove head
Replace head gasket
Replace timing belt
Run new SS radiator hoses
Mount new turbo & downpipe
Mount new intake for turbo
Install rear sway
Install oil cooler and oil thermostat (if I can get parts in time)
Install new PLX DM-100 & Oil Pressure sensor module
Install battery cutoff switch

hey rob, sorry i havent gotten back to you. this has been a hectic week for me with my move, bills piled up without any real income to pay for any of them, school starts next week, etc. I need ball joints too, I just havent had time to call. I should have time tomorrow.. As for my new shop. Premier Motors, right off of stone street next to the Rockville metro station. We do pretty much everything. I work by myself in a 2 bay shop doing primarily alignments for all the body shops in the area and MSI's. I got my *** kicked by a BMW X5 today that needed a thermostat...You guys think our cars have no room under the hood..

looks like stage 3 cam install for me was going to throw up some pictures but got busy sticking in new brake lines and I broke a wheel stud
Anybody got any ideas how to stabilize the knuckle in the press so you can press out the spindle?
