Shocks/Springs Install Help, please.
 
Has anyone local changed out their springs/shocks on their own. If so, can I bribe you into giving me hand with mine? I've got the RB springs waiting, and the Koni shocks should arrive this week.

I have changed my springs on the RX-8 last year. It is fun, and am willing to lend a hand as well. Do you have a location to perform the swap?

Laters!

Yeah, I have my parents' driveway/garage.

Dannobre helped with my install - He did a lot of the work. It IS work. :) Depending on the date, I'm game. I can bring mary's air-compressor and we've got a gun for it. it'd make quick work of some of the more tedious bolts/nuts.

Sat PM the 14th :D: Darrin.. Track day on the 15th at PRI.......Got a spare room :D:

kristopher_d 04-04-2007 12:41 AM

I'll take all the help I can get. Especially in the form of pointing out how stupid I'm being BEFORE I get too frustrated. What days are best for you guys? I don't have shipping confirmation yet, but I'll update with details as I get them. I can take off work early if that works best for you guys, or the weekend.

dmp 04-04-2007 11:28 AM

Sure thing Dan - C'mon down. :)

Let's shoot for the 14th, Kris - wanna do it at my place? :D Easier for ME anyway...lol. I can fire-up the weber!

:D

kristopher_d 04-04-2007 03:11 PM

That'll work. :)

dmp 04-04-2007 04:41 PM

You'll need to get your alignment done ASAP - try to find a place up there (speedware?) to do it for you Monday.

:)

dmp 04-04-2007 04:42 PM

Oh yeah - Dan - Bring a bottle of Candy for me? Please? the Asprin version is upsetting my stomach something fierce. :(

I leave for Denver on the 15th - just smack me would you please!

Address for the 14th???

grinn253 04-04-2007 05:49 PM

Looks like you have a lot of help coming your way, that is great! I think DMP lives pretty far from I, so uhm in that case maybe I'll pass (depending on location). :dunno: DMP is even offering to fire up some sort weber!

Speedware is where i had my alignment performed as well, seems good.

Laters!

I'll talk to them tomorrow. They're about a mile from my apartment.

Did I say "I like ribs?"

muhaha

dannobre 04-04-2007 08:46 PM

I'm game.....get's me out of the house :D:

dmp 04-04-2007 08:55 PM

what time works for ppl? My daughter has a soccer game at 1. Wanna try about 3pm? that too late? If so, I can go, then come back, or just send Mary. :)

dannobre 04-04-2007 08:59 PM

3pm works for me..... should only take a couple of hours without snags

kristopher_d 04-04-2007 11:26 PM

3 is good for me. I still remember my soccer playing days. You better go to the soccer game, or you'll be in all kinds of trouble. ;)

dmp 04-05-2007 09:41 AM

Aight - 3pm, I'll host. Dan'll be there, Kris will be there...Nem will likely show up for awhile...

Anyone else?

kristopher_d 04-05-2007 12:10 PM

Since it's my car, I'll bring the beef.

dmp 04-05-2007 01:31 PM

I've really got that covered, Kris - maybe bring a case of Beer? (if you drink, if not, Pop is fine)

:D

kristopher_d 04-05-2007 02:39 PM

Okay, beer it is.

Nemesis8 04-05-2007 03:45 PM
