Northern Virginia Roll Call

If the 255s will fit without rubbing up front, I'll leave them on most likely.

My ucas should be easy take offs. When I swapped my oems for the LRs, the bolts didn't hit the fender wells, as I am told that a lot of trucks have that problem. I guess the tolerances on my truck were better on build day?

coilovers should be easy, unless a seized bolt needs cutting. That reminds me, I'll try to remember to bring my angle grinder and dremel. Just in case.

 

sounds great... I have an angle grinder, but it's a POS...

I have ratcheting wrenches and all that.... should make it easier

 

I have a craftsman special with cutting discs. If bolts need cutting, do you have an ace or HD somewhere close?

 

HD is 11 minutes away

 

Good to hear. I know lowes sucks with stocking metric and/or grade 8 hardware, but HD should be better.

 

I may need to borrow your dremel to get my toolbox open (since it's stuck on "lock")

 

Should take care of it pretty easily. The cutting discs are kinda small though so hopefully the lock mechanism isn't too far inside or it might not reach.

 

yea it doesnt look too far... I'm going to take an angle grinder to it tomorrow and see if I can keep a steady enough hand to lightly cut the retaining bar w/out messing anything else up

 

this might have to be the plate if I end up getting the Prius....

 

Not too wild or wonderful though...

 

Ha I didn't know ol dirty had any juice these days. Granted I don't really pay attention much.

 

lol exactly what makes it funny to me..... wild, wonderful, pweeus.

 

@Coot83 you around this weekend or early next week?

 

I don't have a floor jack, but I've got a set of jackstands that I can bring.

I was thinking of hauling my dremel out as well. I'm going to bring my soldering iron along as well for the fog light harness splicing. @Me. Projekt is there a RadioShack near you? The one near work in MD closed a few months ago, and I don't think there's one in F'burg.

I've got an oscillating cutter thing in my cordless tool set if you don't want to try the grinder and the dremel won't reach. I was thinking about bringing it and the drill with me anyways just in case.

 

Yep I should be around and chilling man. You got those lights?

 

Oh yeh brotha! I will bring them by sometime this weekend.

 

Ill be bringing a small propane torch, some open ended wrenches, angle grinder, dremel, rivet set, and some other small things. Caleb, did you find a t55 torx for your bed bolts to install the stiffeners? If not, i have one i can bring. @Lots2Learn58 if you are able to make it, could you bring your cordless impact and sockets? Those would help out. @fatfurious2 can i borrow your jackstands for the weekend if possible? I could come pick them up friday afternoon if you are around. If not, no worries. Im just not sure what all we have so i wanted to be on the safe side. We will need at least two jacks and two sets of jackstands.

I feel so vulnerable without my tools

 

I've got a T55 torx as well. I've got a little cordless impact driver that I could bring. I've also got a big corded impact gun and a set of deep metric impact sockets.

 

no Radio shack close that I know of....

lol I feel ya man, I was the same way at the place in Ashburn since my garage was never fully unpacked

 

yea I bought a full Torx kit
