New England Meet Greet/BBQ/Mod Day 6/24/17

I'll bring my flare nut wrenches. Its straight forward, but it'll be messy and brake fluid eats paint and leaves a nice stain on the driveway. Make sure you bring some big pieces of cardboard to lay out so we can keep things clean.

 

Wait is that @DoubleRGirl baby pic? Lmao jk

 

Morning all. 1 day to go!

 

looking like its gunna be great weather.

 

Countdown clock

 

Is this invite only or is there one more spot open for a non taco?

I'm up for helping anyone who needs it with mods, and can bring tools. I have rhino ramps i can bring if you dont want to keep it on jacks if your modding underneath.

Im sure everytone else has everything covered since im late to this party.
Someone said there will be a SWR meter to tune CB which i desperately need done.

And im up for wheeling! Id be coming alone so ill have room in my truck for other people to hop in if they dont want to bring there rig.

 

C ya there

 

just understand its been discussed that non tacos must park down the street and walk in

 

will be leaving a couple hours early today to get the pork on the smoker. They will prob smoke for about 16 hours.

 

I've done the rear brake lines... The disconnecting of the lines was easy - the removal of the metal clips holding the line in on the other hand... if they're rusted like mines it took me almost an hour to get the clips out. After that it's cake. I swapped in speed bleeder valves and bleeding went nice and quick. I made a drip line for the bleeders to keep it from dripping down the freshly painted calipers.

I'll try to remember my flare nut wrenches, it helps to have two sets since the upperside of the line is a junction point between two bolts that need flare nut wrenches.

I'd love to rebuild my axles at this event but that seems like something I'd rather do at a shop with a lift...

 

I'm going to bring my Camburgs to replace the BJ's. Seems like a MUCH easier job with an extra set of hands!

 

Those proforged ball joints I bought for the lower control arms... Man I had to pay for a place with a bigger press to put them in. And even they had trouble haha. Should be done tonight but I don't know if I want to try installing them tomorrow...

 

Bring them with you just in case

 

So just confirming/reposting the details for visibility:

Date: Tomorrow
Time: 11:00 am
Place: 21 Old Mill St, Burrillville RI, 02830

Bring beers, chairs, tools, mods, etc.
Trucks that are planning on doing work should park on the driveway, all others should park on the lawn.

Anything else we should know?

 

Be there or be square.

 

@Nicetacobro just looked at google maps and street view, you even have a Mary in a bathtub!!! gotta represent

 

I still have to figure which route to take as I have multiple choices.

 

All that is correct. Drive way is the next street. East hill st.

 

Oh hell yea, honestly i woulda taken it out years ago but my grandfather poured so much damn concrete when making that i dont think itll ever move. Lmao. And. Mary 1/2 shell, is on my mothers side as its a duplex im on the otherside of the fence. Its 21 and 23 .
