lift!

jerbacher · **Posted:** Sat Apr 14, 2007 1:43 pm

Well, I'm buying meduncan's Rusty's lift tomorrow. So, I guess I'm going to need some help installing this thing sometime. I'm pretty helpless since I've never done a lift, and live in an apartment with no garage etc... So, I dont know what the standard proceedure is on this sort of thing, but just let me know if anyone can lend a hand!

Are thre front structs/springs pre-assembled?

How far are you from Ann Arbor, MI?

tommudd · **Posted:** Sat Apr 14, 2007 5:44 pm

Depends on how far you want to go. I have a garage/jacks/tools etc. and will help you if you want to come over here (Toledo). Take you about two hours to run over here, my half brother lives over there so made the trip back and forth a few times.
Like renegade asked are they preassembled? If so then will not take too long to do it! I can come up with somewhere if not lot of shops in the area.

hey everyone, i just picked up the stuff. The struts are preassembled, so that will make everything much easier! Renegade, if I can hook it up in Toledo, that would obviously be a better situation for me. It's a pretty good drive to ann arbor.

Its about a 1/2 days work with the struts preassembled and enough hands. I might be able to come down to Toledo. Do you have a week end in mind?

jerbacher/LostRenegade
Next weekend I am out of town but the following 28th/29th I would be here and ready. Wouldnt be too far for you to come down LostRenegade Three sets of hands would make short work of the lift!
Now if jerbacher can wait that long :lol:

Let me know Any one else that wants to visit Toledo is more than welcome

jerbacher · **Posted:** Sun Apr 15, 2007 6:04 pm

28/29 would work fine for me! Thanks so much for helping!

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Apr 15, 2007 6:17 pm

Pick a day (28th or 29th) that will work for you, I can be available either day. I will PM you my address/phone number etc. Anyone else that wants to help let us know! I am so used to doing everything myself this will be fun :lol:

I might try to make it up that day....

jerbacher · **Posted:** Sun Apr 15, 2007 7:35 pm

Sat 28th would work best for me as I would probably be getting home late and I work 8-6 on weekdays with a 45min commute.

Just to let everyone know, complying with standard proceedure, there is of course food, beer, whatever else coming to all that help!

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Apr 15, 2007 8:04 pm

So its official then: Saturday April 28th
want to say what 10:00 /11:00 to start??
If anyone wants to come, PM me and I will send you my address.
Moose, come on up and then you can hit Stanleys afterwards! :wink:

LostRenegade · **Posted:** Sun Apr 15, 2007 8:41 pm

The 28th may be ok if we get started early enough. My son and I have an event at 6pm that I would have to be back for.

tommudd · **Posted:** Mon Apr 23, 2007 6:12 pm

Hey Lostrenegade should not take too long so if you want to come down could use the help. I will PM you my address etc soon. Same with you Moose , are you still thinking of maybe coming up? Also if anyone is coming do you have a torque wrench, left mine lay down at my other garage 256 miles away!

jerbacher · **Posted:** Mon Apr 23, 2007 8:17 pm

Sorry, no torque wrench here. I'll check with my boss tomorrow to see if he has one, but I kinda doubt it. I'll bring the basic tools I have, though they are pretty crappy...

tommudd · **Posted:** Mon Apr 23, 2007 8:31 pm

What time do you think you can be over here? Not rushing you just planning so others if they want to come kind of have an idea when. Let us know for sure when you can.

jerbacher · **Posted:** Mon Apr 23, 2007 8:47 pm

Well, I'm staying at a friends house in Amherst, OH Friday night. Thats a lot closer to Toledo so I only have 1.5 hrs. to drive. So, I can really be there any time you want! You mentioned starting at 10 am, which is fine with me. I can be there at 9 or 9:30 to get setup to start at 10. Or, if you want to start earlier, possibly to make it easier for LostRenegade, thats fine too! I really, really appreciate the help, so I'm willing to accomodate everyone elses schedules!

tommudd · **Posted:** Mon Apr 23, 2007 10:28 pm

Hey we will try and shoot for say 9:30 or so then. When you get here we will get started. Havent heard anything from Moose, maybe hes LOST :lol:

The sooner we start the sooner you get to go run around showing off the new lift! Wow could be 2 or 3 lifted KJs in Toledo for a change!! :wink:

jerbacher · **Posted:** Tue Apr 24, 2007 8:19 am

Sounds good. I will see you then!

moose · **Posted:** Tue Apr 24, 2007 8:25 am

I'm going to try to head up to BG Friday night...

LostRenegade · **Posted:** Wed Apr 25, 2007 8:43 pm

I won't be able to make it.
