New England Mod & Meetup Renaissance group

Oooooh perhaps! We usually do a fall ride up there in October, will see if I can juggle things around

 

I think I'm in

 

Definitely gotta get you on 35s for this then

 

I've got the campsite from 1pm Fri Sept 1st to Tuesday morning.

as I said I've got a buddy coming up but I'm not 100% sure what he's doing - either putting up his own tent for Sat/Sunday or might just be coming up for a day to rent some UTVs. If he ends up not setting up a tent someone else is more than welcome to share the site for however long they want (I'm allowed 2 tents/2vehicles) but I won't know until the summer what his exact plan will be. I know the campground is booked out for the weekend but there's plenty of spots local to the trails you could camp out at if people end up wanting to spend more than a day up there. I made this reservation early January and it was 1 of 2 spots available.

When the time gets closer we'll figure something out and see how many folks we have wanting to go. I know it's pretty close to the ME trip and the AOAA trip isn't too far after so beating on your truck might not be what you want to do.

 

Anyone interested to come down to Providence for this sometime this year?

I think some jeep group does something every year, too.

 

That sounds like a great idea. I knew the truckers did this but I didn't know it went that far out. Plan it on a Saturday night and I'll be there for sure!

 

I'm in!

You bringing the Taco or your daily?

 

the taco if we have to make lights!

 

You get them tires on yet???

 

Anyone willing to help me do a complete brake overhaul next mod day? Rotors/calipers/backers/lines up front, complete drums/lines in the rear. Maybe get the ECGS bushing in while the front's torn up too.

I've never fucked with brakes to that level before and would appreciate some guidance, especially getting them bled correctly (TRDOR with the hydraulic booster)

 

Well, I was planning to flush my brake fluid and that's it, so if you're doing brakes then makes sense to do that together.

I'm down. Advice get some M8-1.25 bolts (check that it's M8 I am pretty sure that's the right size) off the scrap bin or whatever. The front rotors have two threaded holes you can thread those into that pull the rotors off. Makes that step 1000x easier.

 

Oh... I just pound those off with a sledge...

 

I read it as next Monday not next mod day. Got all excited there was a 3 day weekend.
I'm definitely down but I remember you were from the Northeast Kingdom. Not sure if Wilbraham is a far ride for you or how to play that...

Maybe we have a techstream on hand in case

 

I don't mind a little trip now and again. It reminds me why I have this stupid truck to begin with.

 

I'll add you to the OP list!


May do a few small mod days before the warmth of spring either in Lawrence or North Chelmsford. Space is limited, could probably get your brake stuff and Mr. Farts list done especially if we get one more guy there to help.

 

I can help, I gotta do my drums at some point too and I wanna see how

 

6 minutes! It only took 6 minutes to get a guy to come help for the day... where else does that even happen. Sure as shit not at my work.


Thanks Matt
