Bit the Bullet... Lift Party Time!!!

VMKJCRD · **Posted:** Thu Jul 15, 2010 5:14 pm

Jeepen_it_real isn't coming i sent him a PM and he said that hes in north Carolina. So its only 2 lifts, he said that hopefully we can have another lift party for him. I cant wait till monday, its driving me crazy :banghead:

.

Im going to try to get the KJ washed on Saturday early morning before i head upstate and ill be spraying her down with some pb penetrating lube on Sunday. Heard that this stuff is better then liquid wrench and ill also be bringing 2 cans with me for the areas that i cant get. Like the old lady says on the Franks Red hot sauce commercial: I put that s-hit on everything. :SOMBRERO:

If anyone wants copys of the pictures i took let me know ill burn them on a disk for you. My internet connection is acting up for some reason. My 3G phone is some times faster....

I'll take a copy of them if you don't mind, I know you took a whole bunch, and they were good too!, lol.

I was going to try and put my rear bumpstops and another set of rear upper isolators in, but for some reason they were never shipped.

More time to concentrate on the actual lifts. Maybe one day Benny, we can do a double rear end upgrade, lol.

I know Jeff mentioned he waned to put isolators as well? Maybe?

Either way, Monday is going to be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

No, but I was a little over an inch below stock. Then the 2.5 from the Frankenlift, which was just over 2.5.

I think Dean said he can get a Spring Compressor. If you have any horse that would help and an socket set.
by the way my address is

62 Cleveland St
Patchogue NY 11772 .5 from Sunrise Highway. I think 9 am is good you guys let me know.

lemme know how it goes monday... i might be able to take an " extended lunch" and swing by send a PM out and i'll give ya my number

Vranes17 · **Posted:** Sun Jul 18, 2010 11:37 am

9 works. Was going to go out and grab some beer today for tomorrow but id figure we should just wait. Dont know what you guys like and how much your gonna drink, so I figured we would wait till we run our struts to the shop then we can do the beer orders then.

Also if anyone has a rivit gun, and a couple spare rivits for it, I could really use to finish riviting my drivers side fender in, if not oh well.

yea i was thinking the same thing to, probably take a quick run to costo or BJs for beer but ill wait till everyone gets there.

Worst comes to worse we can always get someone to go for a beer run while others stay and play on the kjs.
:JEEPIN:

VMKJCRD · **Posted:** Sun Jul 18, 2010 5:47 pm

all packed up and ready to go! :rockon:

Ill bring some wooden boards for the jack stands and my socket set.

infernicus · **Posted:** Sun Jul 18, 2010 8:43 pm

Wooooo, T-Minus twelve hours.

I'm picking the spring compressors up tomorrow morning.
I wasn't able to get another floor jack.
I have a bottle jack, and two jack stands.
I'll bring my mini ratchet set, if I remember correctly, we used a couple deep sockets. Maybe a run to Autozone might be necessary.. for some reason 18 & 21mm is in my head.
I don't know accurate it is, but here is a thread for a tool list. viewtopic.php?t=9837

Can't wait. Just have to finish this wedding!

LI_KJ · **Posted:** Sun Jul 18, 2010 10:54 pm

I've got a metric and SAE set of deepwell sockets and ratchets in the back of the KJ. I will bring what I have. I have an air impact gun at my parents place which is like 20 mins from Bennys. Get that PB Blaster lathered up boys. See ya in the am.
