Sat Install Meet - 10/17

Looks like Hoss will be installing his springs, 9k replacing his duct tape , and me grilling


I don't know for sure what time they want to get started but I am game all day.

For those interested in watching the game (Texas/OU), I will be watching it and grilling.

If you plan on coming please speak up so I can know how much fajitas to buy. Would like to see some good salsa and quac (heheheh you know who you are)

Will prolly do a tune up on my dad's car once the game is over.

So whoever is up for it, come on down. Even if you work, we will be there well into the night.

I'm down. may have to do the rotors and pads of my friends car early Saturday morning but it shouldn't conflict, I can knock that out in an hour or so. I still haven't got any of my **** (pads, spacers, battery relocation kit, etc.) So I guess I will put my spring compressor to good use for Hoss.

I'm really excited for your fajitas Man!

Also I'm glad you had a productive night tonight Grunge! I knew we could start making things happen.

Yeah I would like to knock out my plugs also... I know I can do the leading ones all by myself no problem but the trailing ones look difficult.

Em has the kiddos would it be cool if her and them came by for a bit???

Plug change is easy Hoss, remember when we did Jay's? it was no problem unless the Mazda Gorilla installed them on. Also make sure you bring your two jack stands so we can get your car up off the ground completely and I can do the rear springs while you do the fronts.

1/2" drive is best for torquing lug nuts.

I should be there but there are a couple of misconceptions that need to be corrected. First is that Saturday is the official day for football and second is that the game is actually Florida v Arkansas. Silly Texans
