I have tools at my house that you guys can use. I would be happy to do it for you if you can chip in on a new set of Mechanix gloves as I cut my hands up big time doing Kel's coilovers this past weekend.

The good ol RX7 scissor jack works just fine


FYI - here is the location for the BBQ. For those of you not familiar with the area, we are probably going to have the staging point be at the Starbucks where we normally meet at and drive over to the bbq. Either Chris or I will scout it out this week to make sure everything is kosher for the weekend.

Here it is in relation to the starbucks:


Here are the two park spots. We will probably be using the north park.

thanks guys....looking forward to it this saturday. Chris I'll meet you and we can roll out I guess.

I got some stands and a jack and the oem 8 jack as well so getting it up in the air should be fine. Any help I can help is greatly appreciated. If anyone has a breaker bar I think that would be key.

eh, they are 3-4 bucks a piece, I just figure why take the risk that you muck one of them up and you get pulled over for an exhaust ticket.
