Hello everyone,

I hope everyone eat their fill Thursday, for me the second round is later today. I am not going to be able fit under the KJ if I keep eating like this!

Thanks for getting a propane heater. The electric ones, unless they ran on 220v will be too small. The garage is 30 x 40, and 21 foot clear at the peak, lots of vol. to heat!

Nope, no real trails around my area, and with hunting season in full swing, you don't want to be traveling thru the woods at this time of year! Don't worry all the bolts should be ok after we are done, we haven't lost anybody yet! :lol:

The address of the garage, is the one on my business cards, and it very easy to get to.

Al

Ok guys and Girls!

Its a week away, and I will need a head count for next Sunday, and to confirm the list of installs a couple of posts back.

I got the install of the lifts down to about three to four hours for each, we will most likely be able to two a one time.

Let us make a list of who's coming and what needs to be installed.

Edgar, let me see about Monday! I will call you tomorrow. Mike (Talon) was thinking about coming up the week of Christmas to see if we can get his shock mounts welded on. Would you be able to be "sick" one of those days and come out?

Al

I am sooo jealous, there are very few (3 that i know of) KJ addicts around my neck of the woods. We never have lift parties!!!

Sunday should be Sunny and relatively warm (low 40's) so it still looks good! I fixed the shifter in the hotrod last Tuesday, so I can drive that out of the garage, along with the two tractors and we should be able to work on three Libertys at the same time with the doors closed!

See you all there around 9:30 - 10:00?

Al

PS: I have a head cold right now, so you guys will most likely be doing all the grunt work on Sunday, unless I start feeling better.

I've got no problem with doing the grunt work. 9:30 sounds fine. As of right now 3 out of 4 boxes of my Frankenlift are showing that they're out for delivery, hoping that they just forgot to scan the fourth. I'll be there regardless, look forward to meeting you all. One last question, is it cool if i bring a few friends, they're all excited to see my lift go on and one even owns another Libby.

Bring as many friends as you want, as long as they are in the mid twenties, female, blonde or redheaded, model for a living and really like balding, fat, old married guys!!!!

The more the hands the more wrenches will be turning! See you Sunday, with your "posse".

OK, getting kinda anxious here, my Frankenlift just got here, preassembled struts: Check, rear springs: Check, shocks:uh oh, bump stops: umm....

What do i do, i only got 3 out of 4 boxes from UPS even though the fourth is showing on time...i'm assuming that's where my shocks and bump stops are. I don't think UPS delivers on Saturdays, i have to work, and i don't know i f i can just go pick up the package after i get off...at 5PM.

HELP ME!!!! what do i do?

Thanks,
-Savage-

I have gone to the central UPS center by my house to pick up a package that I needed that did not make a Friday delivery once. The center was open on Saturday's, but they wouldnt deliver it because the sender did not pay extra for Sat delivery. I had the tracking number and they confirmed it was there and let me pick up. I dont know what center is near you but it should show on the tracking number for the pieces you got.

Al- you need anything, extra tools, jacks, jacks stands?

Thanks, i know where the local shipping center is, it's not even 5 min, from my house, i just always thought that they were closed on saturdays, i'll see if i can send my mom down there to pick it up while i'm at work. if i can't get the last package, can i use the stock rear shocks until i get the Rancho's?

Al-same goes for me, if you need anything let me know i'll try to bring what i can, i'll be bringing 4 other prospective 4-wheelers with me, 1 with a KJ, 1 looking at getting one, and 2 who just aren't cool enough 8)

Once again, thanks to all for all the help, dunno what i'd do without you guys
