who wants to go wheeling?

Alrighty then... Looks like coder is having a build party!

I guess I need to get a couple of jack stands, a floor jack and a torque wrench. Its going to be damn hot. Better hold off on the beer until after we're done, lest we end up with the coil-overs on the rear of the vehicle.

I got that too, easy enough to bring. Do you have an air compressor and a good selection of metric tools.

Could do saturday evening for Sunday wheelin'. Who's In to help Code?
 
Easy there!!! Still need to get an alignment done after the shocks and springs go in... No wheeling until I know the tires are straight. :wacko:

Let me check the administrative calendar of events and figure out a time when I can get this put together. This weekend is already out. I may even be able to get the garage cleaned out enough to work in there rather than in the driveway...

I can help as well, its a pretty straight foreward procedure. and I know a guy that does a good alignment too.

I have a 33 gallon upright compressor, some air tools and a wide assortment of metric tools, 4 jack stands, a big ass floor jack and probably anything else we may need including an 12x12 ez-up to work under if we spill out into the driveway - I'm more than happy to bring it all over and leave it till the job is done. Just let me know, I'm down to help out in anyway. If you find out you can get started this weekend, I'm open, next weekend is the 4th so I don't think I'll be around much. I'm wide open the weekend after that (10th-12th)

As for alignments, I went to Firestone and got their Lifetime alignment - $165 vs $145 and I take my 89 4Runner in at least once a year, sometimes 2 or 3.

Wouldn't that be the shizzzz. Sooo... looking at possibly Sunday morning? The earlier the better... Who's in? I'm thinking Bloody Mary's to get things started and then moving to beer and finally margaritas to wrap up. LOL!

Ok! Let's shoot for 7 am? We're gonna be working in the driveway. Garage is a mess... I'll pm my address here in a bit.

Let me check with the lady - need any tools? I can bring the compressor and stuff plus whatever I have a far as hand tools, plus the canopy to attempt to keep us cool.
 
ill bring my tray of open end wrenches and the torque wrench at a minimum. Throw in an extra EZ up JIC
 
I need jack-stands and a floor jack would be super helpful... I figure do the front's first since they're the most difficult, then the rears.

Jeff - I don't know if the compressor will help since I have no air tools. I think we're stuck with straight wrenching for this one...

I have air tools: impact, cut off, die grinder, air hammer & 3/8 air ratchet.... I'll bring a torque wrench along with an assortment of metric sockets and open ends, have 4 jack stands and a 3 ton floor jack too.... and anything else I can find.

What's really going to kill you is what I paid for it... I was the very special winner of this "for sale" post a couple of days ago...

I'd say I made out like a bandit... Though I will say I think one of the rear shocks is blown, but I won't know that until I get it installed. But even then... I can replace that one not problem. May even go with 5160's...


Glad you like it! I'm sorry about the shock though :-/ had I known I either wouldn't have put it up or I would've dropped the price more. When I make it back out to phoenix i'll buy you a beer to make up for it.
 
[MENTION=84834]Logan714[/MENTION] - Oh heck no... One of the shocks had some leakage at the base of the boot. I had a shop take a look at it and it checked out fine. Apparently some accumulation is normal. I'll take you up on that beer though! LOL. Let me know the next time you're in town so we can get some wheeling in!
