KPT · 01-24-2012, 06:12 AM

I don't have a preferred weekend. I'll be a gametime decision based on whether I have to be on call for work. I can bring an air compressor and air tools and food.

achirdo · 01-24-2012, 06:13 AM

I'm down for any day. Doesn't matter to me. How much land you got? Can you shoot on it? I know a couple of members have been wanting to meet up at the gun range for a day

No, I am within the city limits and it's only 1 acre. However, there is a gun range right up the road that just opened. http://www.armadilloguns.com/ I haven't been there so can't speak to it, but it's like 3 minutes from the house.

achirdo · 01-24-2012, 06:58 AM

Hopefully my AR is here by the time we meet up. And I'm down to help with any mods. I'm pretty familiar withe the suspension

x2 and I am comfortable using a spring compressor if anyone needs that stuff jacked with.

achirdo · 01-24-2012, 07:08 AM

Keith you should help me do a satoshi

And I might be picking up a small 80amp welder, if anyone needs some small projects done

I can help you with the satoshi, no problem. I have leftover bondo and fiberglass still actually. It takes more than a day though, but we can at least get started.

If anyone has a welder I have been meaning to have my magnaflow welded so I can get rid of the clamps. It's stainless steel I'm not if that makes a difference, I know nothing about welding.

I also have an ultragauge if anyone needs to check or clear codes.

I can weld if some brings one. I'd hold off buying one for now though

tex · 01-24-2012, 10:50 AM

Welding stainless is a little different. I am not sure what it takes to weld stainless.

xJuice · 01-24-2012, 10:52 AM

Interested.... 4th, we'll be in Houston, 11th and 18th may work. I'll have to see if there's anything on the wife's calendar when I get home.

CrackerJackMack · 01-24-2012, 12:10 PM

Hah, forgot to put what I wanted to do! We don't have to focus on just my stuff, so it's whatever we have time for. I figured we could sort it out when everyone gets here.

Upper A-arms (light racing)
CB radio
Shim my front bumper *

* My allpro wings curve up too much so I can't run my fenders. If I shim the bumper then I can put flares back on or try and put the after markets back on.

I need a sawsall if we do the uppers. I bought replacement bolts.

cohrmundt · 01-24-2012, 12:21 PM

CrackerJackMack · 01-24-2012, 03:25 PM
