Hey All,

Wish I could get out more with you guys, but various things prevent it. However, Bren and I are gonna make the night run in Sedona come hell or slick rock.

I have a BL and refabbed springpack with aal sitting on my garage floor that I want to get put on before the run. I am going to try to get ahold of UCA's to finish the 3" lift by then, but I won't hold my breath on that.
WE are a go for Sat May 10th. We will be gathering around 9am at Adam's, as he has kindly offered his home and BL experience to the fold.
Soon as he offers me the address of his humble abode, I will post it here.

Thanks guys

Amazingly enough I will be off work also. I can help.

Having done two bodylifts...I'l b sure to be there.

Plan on about 4 hours for the body lift assuming we get started around 8-9am. Add an hour or so if no air tools.

Maybe we can get First Class to lend us some space again... That four-beam lift would make raising the body from the frame a breeze and cut the time in half. Normally you only do one side at a time.

I will need to throw on all new TRE and a bushing in my Calmini Steering that weekend also. That is only a 1 hour job though by myself.

A sawzall or angle grinder are very helpful with cutting the lower radiator support. I think an angle grinder would actually be best from what I remember.

Also, a good drill and array of good strong bits to relocate the bumpers. Adam did a great job with mine and Tom's.

guess I may have to try and recruit Adam and Onix as well...lol
Thanks for all the offers to assist.

I got a sawzall and can bring a drill and bits. I need to pick up an angle grinder so I will get one of those too.

Tim, I am not going to be able to make. I forgot that was Mother's Day weekend. Oops!!

If Onix can hook us up with the lift and you are willing to tavel this way... I'm sure I could help out (depending on when my parts finally show up).

I'm thinking of doing a BL on the Gen2 so seeing one done would do me some good too.

Sent ya a pm.

Thanks to those offering to assist. See y'all at Adam's on the 10th.

You got it.

I might be able to set up the shop for the mod and or mods check back on the 9th but i dont think its a problem , i dont want to be the one doing all the work i can give a hand but not offering to do it all.

Your shop would be sweet if you can swing it Wally and Ty was willing to go there. It would be a much easier process with a lift I think .

Plus, I need to rebuild my steering system (new TRE's and bushings) that day.

Might have morehands to help at First Class as well. Just a thought. I'll be there to help wherever it ends up.

Wally,
Do you want to push back doing your light install till this day? I would like to install some lights too, but I am going camping this weekend (see other thread). What do you think?

Thank you very much to the offer of the shop. While it will make the process go by faster, I will be getting off work in Surprise that morning, and since Dan, Scott, and Adam are westsiders, I think we will muddle through at Adam's. That way he can stay home and enjoy the beer, and save us all a few bucks in gas.

Here Here,

Now how many Costco Pizzas do we need?

Well i just bought a Yamaha yz 125 and i am doing the important thing befor taking it out to play just like adam with his new X gen1 of course.so i will be working on the truck and the bike.if need be we can hook up later

Ordered AC Uca's to finish the SL since we will be working on it anyway...lol. thanks to y'all for offering to help out this Saturday. Hitting the bolts with PB Blaster to try and make them easier to remove.
See y'all Saturday

You think they'll be here by then? Should be easy to install, I helped with Rob's (I think that was his name.)

They have a sheduled delivery date of 5/8, so we should be good to go

I might be able to stop by...

Cool.

AZ-Ted, glad to hear you're ok. Coming with the X?

The X is in the shop right now, so I'll be cruising in the Ford Edge (minivan) rental.

Joannie wanted to know if any of the Girls will be coming?

If not, she's going to go and leave all the fun to us. (After she gets the pizzas!)
