Want to lend a hand?

I could really use a hand this weekend putting on the new poly bushings and body lift. I haven't done it before, and having two sets of hands would be better than just one.

I also have some stuff I need to work on but lack the man power and tools to complete it. We could get a few ppl together and knock out a bunch of projects at once.

Where are you located. I wouldn't mind lending a hand if you are close to the Raleigh Durham area. I'm gonna need some help soon as well to install a SS 1.2 kit.

I am in Charlotte, NC and need some help with upgrading my suspension.... Just ordered Moog front springs and Bilstein F & R 5100s. I have never worked on suspension on any vehicle before and would be interested in getting some help/guidance. I can pay you with some cold beer while we work and possibly pay for your brews after we finish at any of the awesome breweries near my place. Shoot me a message if you are interested!

I was going to drive out to aha's this week to install some OME 885s but I may come up your way instead. What's your price?

Thought I would see if anyone is interested in a wrench session. I just moved to Charlotte and bought a 2003 4Runner with a 3.5" lift. I noticed some grinding up front. Jacked up the truck to find the right side front a little sloppy. I bought a Hub Bearing Assembly, got home removed wheel and noticed my issues go much further than a failed bearing. Looking like I need a axle, upper and lower control arm bearings, maybe bushings and probably other stuff as well. I looked at a bunch of different parts and I am a little over whelmed with the many options and what I really need as far as what parts I should replace. Coming from Wisconsin I had a 3 stall garage and a few buddies that would come over to wrench on their Vehicles it was always nice to have a second hand and comradely. I live in a apartment now with a small ass garage. While its workable not ideal. At this point just looking for help on what I should replace. I live in North Charlotte and I not looking for someone to just do it for me but more of a mentor or someone that might have a hair more experience tearing into something like this. Beer, food or whatever it takes, thought it would be a good way to meet people as well since I'm new to the area. Thanks for reading!
