I don't know if anyone has noticed, but it turns out the long weekend is this weekend coming up.

Victoria day is the 19th.

So are we meeting up this weekend still? Or Monday I should say?

Or perhaps a lift?
there are only 3 bolts that need to be tightened....the 2 spring loaded ones that attach to your midpipe and the one that secures the muffler to the short pipe of the MS exhaust. Honestly, you will have a hard time getting the torque wrench in there.....on a lift its much much easier but in jays driveway...may be an issue. Also, when you install the exhaust you need to align the tips before tightening down the middle bolt that attatches the 2 peices together......when I had mine breifly.....there was a solid inch of space all the way around the tips........the only other thing I could see is they want you to cut the inside of the exhaust shroud to make a little more space.....but you wont see that anyways....your call boss.

Either way I'm good for a Monday. I was thinking the coming week since that's when the long weekend is, but either or is fine with me.

I think what he meant was May TWO FOUR weekend, which in most years, the Victoria Day weekend lands near the 24th. This year though, because May has 5 weeks, the third week (17 - 19) and hence May two four is earlier..... And I have a 3 paycheque month :D

I was getting confused with the whole long weekend.
But as it turns out, it's this weekend.

The install will occur next weekend on the Sat. Which I'm good for.

I hope I'll have somethings to install.

Let's stop using "weekend"... use precise dates.

The install shall be on Saturday May 17 or Monday May 19 (Victoria day). Is this correct?

So many dates...

It'll have to be on a Sat. I don't think I'll be able to do anything on the Mon. I might have to go into work.

LoL, wow, so many posts when I was away. Alright I meant May 24 weekend as in the 24 Weekend, holiday weekend, which in this case is the upcoming weekend. I was gauging interest to see who was available for Monday, if too many people had plans, to leave the city or somehting else, we would plan for another day. I figure we do installs on the Monday and then hit up a local pub here by my place for food, maybe the whiskey later on for entertainment and drinks if anyone is up for it.

So who can do the Monday May 19th, LONG WEEKEND Monday.

And who perfers the weekend after, which in this case would be either a Saturday or a Sunday.

Sorry for all the confusion guys.

Really? I thought they were only available in either 9" or 10" width? I've never seen them offered in 9.5".
