Either weekend is fine with me. We just got back from a week in Montana and we need to "white tornado" clean the house this coming weekend (9/11) after a week of the dog and cats being checked on and not supervised. If you come and need the compressor let me know so I can get it.

Either works for me. If we have the compressor, it makes everything a lot easier to do (and would allow me to take on getting the top strut plates in). We can do without, it just limits how many different things we can get done. You and Dan decide on a weekend. I'm good for either.

EDIT: Actually, on further review, this Sat (9/11) is no good for me as I need to be at a conference in ATL that day. But Sun (9/12) or the following weekend should be fine.

Scott is ordering me some Moog coil springs for the rear that should be in by this weekend. If so, I hope to install them and the top isolators. I called and asked to borrow the compressor and should have it by this weekend. As previously stated, any day is fine. We only have three weekends to get things done for ECS and need to take advantage of what time we have.

Dan, If you need us to head your way to help with your mods, let us know. With enough notice it can be arranged, and I can bring the compressor and tools.

9/18 might be perfect if you're willing to have the company in your garage, John. I have a small pancake compressor I could bring. It'll cycle a lot, but should have the PSI to drive your tools if you need it.

Need to check into how much a week long rental of a 120v MIG welder costs...

The 18th is fine. My rear coils will come in this Wednesday, so I plan on installing them Sat. the 18th. We can work around each other. Sunday my daughter and I plan on installing her receiver hitch. I haven't heard from Colin and have no idea what he plans on doing. I borrowed the 20 gal. compressor this weekend and never used it. The owner is taking it back to Fla. for a cabinet job this week, but will bring it back this weekend, so we should have it to use. Let me know what ya'll plan on doing as soon as you know.

Have to get the rear Rancho RSX shocks and trim packer in. Everything else is gravvy...

See everybody then!!!

Oh, and Dan, remember that the 18th is a UGA home game (vs. Arkansas) which starts at noon, so traffic that morning will most likely be heavy...

True. 85/316 becomes like an hourglass with UGA fans/sand filtering east in the morning and west later that night.... I'll have to figure out when the best time is to leave *(probably early)* and deal with it. Thankfully John's place isn't TOO close to Athens.

UPDATE! Betty is leaving tomorrow, Friday, at noon for Highlands, NC for a girls out weekend. I haven't heard about the big compressor, but I have my 4 gal pancake which should be big enough for the impact wrench and air wrench. I hope to get started earlly, +/- 9 a.m. We can order pizza for lunch, but I have frozen pizzas, beer brat, chicken wings and, of course, beer.
Dan, did you get my p.m. about directions here?
Colin, what time do you think you'll be here, and can you bring your coil compressors?
Let me know something so I can plan.

I'll be there at 9AM and yes, coil compressors in hand... :-)

Another successful day of wrenching!!!!!

John and I got installed my 1/4" steel JBA front strut spacers, my 40mm OME left rear trim packert, and my Rancho RSX shocks, as well as installing his new HD rear coil springs and 2 more upper spring isolators per side... His Jeep almost doesn't fit in his garage anymore... :-)r

It was a good day...
