Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
So as the weekend moves closer, I have a trailer lined up to haul the beast up. Here is the only problem. Friday when I get up there I will not be able to start working on the axle. I took my truck in to get aligned yesterday and found out that my idler arm is about shot. Where it is my DD I will have to get that fixed first. If I get it done early enough I will start working on the axle. Otherwise we will probably split up Saturday and some of us attack the axle and the others attack the IFS. I may need to spend a little time wrapping up the truck Saturday. It just depends on WARRANTY. I replaced the Idler arm last Jan. My dad got an arm with a 1 year warranty. Napa said they will work with us but wee will see.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
We're planning on cleaning and prepping the axle, removing the IFS and cleaning the frame, and putting the new axle in all in one day? That's a lot of work.
I'll try and be there by 8. Maybe earlier, depending on what time Ty is planning on rolling out of bed.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
I want it on the road before anyone goes home.
Really my plan is to stay pulling the ifs off and prepped. I'm not super worried about the axle because I can take it home and work on it there. I just want to make some progress.
Kevin you forget I work graveyard I can morph my weekend schedule how ever I need. If you want to stay at 8 that's fine but really whenever you guys want to be there.
Let me know who will be there and I will pm you the address.

Oh great, we just lost the one guy that's done an SAS before.
Ty, I can be there as early as you want me to be there. Is the shop heated?

We've got a propane heater that does a good job.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
I am still planning on coming up, I do need the address. I guess I will be riding solo cause my wing man dropped out. I can meet someone in SLC if they want to car pool. I will bring my camera, that's given.
Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
Ty, PM me the address of the shop please.

He hasn't sent it to me either. I think he's afraid we'll fix his truck and he'll have to come wheeling.

That's not a completely unreasonable train of thought...

Edit: This is pending... My sister-in-law might be up to watch the kid, so there is a good, good chance I'll be able to make it.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
Sorry guys. Work has been CRAZY and I haven't checked this thread. I will send that address out right now.
Brady I think we will try to work til around 4:00ish. That would give me time to clean up before heading home.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
Got that address sent to Kevin, Brady, and Chris.
Let me know if anyone else wants to come and I will get the address to you.
My dad SHOULD have all the tools we need but you never know. If anyone has an angle grinder they want to bring that would be great. He has one but it might be nice to have a couple going at the same time.
I will thaw some nice fresh Holstien Hamburgers and we can grill them for lunch. I will grab some Sodas just let me know what you drink. Not so sure my dad would appreciate alcohol in his shop so we should probably avoid that.

Diet Mtn Dew for me. I'll bring a grinder and some wheels.
I'll leave Magna around 7. Are you going to have your boys up there, or should I leave Ian home?

I will have the boys. If you leave Magna around 7 that puts you in BC around 8 right? I will try to have the heater running before then!!!

Pepsi, since you're taking requests. I'll try and get my hands on an angle grinder here at work and bring it up.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
There's a stunning lack of progress reports.
I am disappoint.

Re: Yearly "Winter Overnight Wrench Out"
Sorry for the lack of updates. I will give you a full update probably tomorrow night in my build thread.
It was a great day. Brady and Chris were awesome help. We got the front stripped down of everything that bolts. Next time we will see more torch action.
