Wrench Party! Empty Wrench Party!

Post by dutchman Tue Nov 03, 2015 8:08 am

Wrenching Party  cheers

What: Come help/watch me remove my transmission and maybe rear axle shafts.

When: Saturday, 11/7; probably 11ish

Why: It's better than doing it alone.  You can help or just bullsh*t in the garage.

Who: Anyone who can make it.

PM for location.

Bonus: We can get the welder out and stick metal together. If you have scrap steel, bring it!

I'll be there at ten, Brady. Are you renting a transmission jack?

Boo for friends with lame jobs that don't get Saturdays off.

We were up Big Cotton on Sunday, I thought about seeing if you were around but we were already out of cell range.

I will be renting a transmission jack.  Don't really want the trans falling on anyone.

If by "participated" you mean "wished I was putting a 7MGTE in my 4Runner", yes, yes I did.
