Wrench day NORCAL
 
Seeing if anyone is interested in getting together in the bay area to help me install some suspension components...Need to install Eibach complete kit and some Camburg UCA's on my 17' pro. I don't have a lot of tools anymore nor an ideal space. Thought it would be nice to meet some members if people wanna get together for a wrench day. I'm in Livermore, willing to travel and will provide good beer (no C-) and pizza.

One sign that the “thought police” have succeeded is when the ability to detect humor is lost and almost everything can be offensive. The first part is also a early sign of dementia. My comment was a sloppy attempt at humor, obviously it must have violated your “safe space”....

@daytonaviolet was gracious and wanted to help when a lot of others won't. Your comment was offensive because you made it personal and insulting. Personal attacks are against this forums policy.

It was a joke, not an offensive personal attack.

He was saying some will do anything for beer and food, just like they will for sex. It was supposed to be funny, and I didn't see it as a jab at anyone.

He quoted @daytonaviolet which made it personal.

I would make it out there to meet up with you guys if I didn’t have to work today.

Maybe another NorCal meet up will happen sometime soon?

Edit:
Just realized that the OP posted this yesterday

X2 for Vacaville resident!

I work at a shop in Sacramento. Depending on what OP's goal is, I may be able to convince the boss to let us use the place. Slim chances but I can try....

If not, I can make room in my garage after the holidays are over. Couple options to mull over.

6 posts in a non political thread before someone blew a gasket. That's gotta be some kind of record.

Thank you to all that have replied and offered help! I think a wrench day would be fun. Doesn't just have to be my truck either. Many hands make light work...

My goal is to get everything installed correctly. I have no problem coming to sac or vacaville. I'll make sure the beer stays cold while traveling! Really appreciate the offer. Shop or garage, both sound great to me. Seeing as how you own a 3.4 swap with manual conversion makes me think you're just a littttttttle more mechanically inclined then myself
