Front Range "Wrench-a-thon" 2/18 - NOON

Wrench-a-thon to be held at:

2/16/06 EDIT: We are changing the time to NOON because it turns out we won't have a lift to install. Come out for a meet and greet, lunch, by-laws discussion, etc. We'll probably tinker around in the garage a bit, help Rock Lizard test fit his Skink Sliders and maybe do an oil change or two. If you have any maintenance items to take care of this would be a good day for it.

If anybody shows up at 9:00am I will act like I'm not home and you'll have to come back in a few hours. Did I mention that we are changing the time to noon? :lol:

This weekend is a no go for me, but the next weekend is a holiday weekend so it is 3 days off (Monday). I am good for Saturday the 18th.

But if everyone sees this Saturday as best for them, I am all for you guys Gettin' R Done w/o me!

The weekend of the 18th would be great for me. Are we still planning on doing this at Joel's? It is a good central location for the people coming from around Denver and Colorado Springs.

I'm open either weekend. I'd really like to help out and put some faces to the LOST Rockies names. Additionally, I'd like to give Rock Lizard an oppertunity to get a more indepth look at the CRD engine compartment (assuming he's able to make it there) re: front bumper and washer bottle relocate. I've sent him some referenced pics, but a look at the real thing is more helpful.

The 18th is best for me still have this lift to install

Joel, you planning on this at your place?

Does the 18th work for everyone?

What is a good time to start, 9am?

Sounds good to me, just have to find a sitter. I'll probably bring a set of skink sliders to test fit to make sure my old measurements are still good, then I can start full swing into skink production.

Ted's bumper is held on by zipties right now, so I don't think that will work.

Nah, "don't you worry about that little guy..."

I have flex cuffs and handcuffs...

Oh wait oops..

So air tools, CB Tuner, Ball joint seperator, Do I need to bring the spring compressor?

Where have I been... well unfortunately... Schoolwork comes first online now :cry:

OK, I have been at Marty's a lot too :wink:

spoonyG · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2006 4:52 pm

I will be there too, but I may be a little after 9am. It's a bit of a trek from Loveland to CastleRock.
Not that I'm complaining, it'll be good to meet everyone.

No problem Spoony...get there when you can.

Ted, yes bring the spring compressor just in case (I don't think we need it for the RRO lift though).

Just FYI - I might try to get my control arms installed this weekend. That way if there's any issues installing the lift we have plenty of time for trips to NAPA, the stealership, etc.

USAFCOP · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2006 8:05 pm

ok, your arms will be an easy install. If you need anything, just give me a call and I will try to help via phone.

farleyd · **Posted:** Thu Feb 09, 2006 6:26 pm

Ok Guys I sent back the OTT lift and will get the combo lift. I hope to have it by the 18th if not I will still come to help out and learn. Also to meet you guys. Thanks for the input about the lift.

I really want to go but there is almost no chance of me making it.
