    Cool, I love mountain bikes as much as Tacos.

    I've got a small 2008 Turner RFX. It's not a DW-link but still an excellent plush pedaling suspension design. This one's a complete bike with top-of-the-line parts like 8" rotors with 4-piston calipers front and rear (XT M755), Boxxer dual crown fork, Chris King hubs front/rear (20mm front axle), Mavic 823 tubeless rims, XT drivetrain, Gravity Dropper seatpost, tubeless tires with Stan's sealant. Its built for downhill speed yet can be pedaled up with the triple ring crankset.

    For other parts:
    Various 90mm stems
    Lockon grips
    Tires, and more tires
    XT M755 4-piston disc brake set with stainless steel hoses (rare, hard to find)

    The XT brakes, don't you have to have certain hubs for those, can they be installed on wheels that never had discs?

    If it's a small then it's not for me since I need at least a 19" size bike.

    Yeah, the small Turner fits folks from 5'4"-5'7". The effective top tube length is 22" for this 16" small.

    Disc brakes will only fit hubs with the 6-bolt hub flange. There are adapters available for certain hubs to allow use of disc brakes. But I think it's best to go with a disc-specific hub since it's designed to take the extra stress of a disc brake pull on the hub vs. a rim brake hub. Once you go disc, there's no going back, it's that good.

    Now why didn't Toyota go disc on all fours? Dumb to have drums, so old skool inefficient

    Okay, so I'll leave my 5-foot prybar at home. 5 lbs sledge...I think the one I take to the end of the ax when splitting wood is 5 lbs. Those things are light if you're used to swinging them all the time.

    On the MTB topic, bring them at your own risk. I take no responsibility for any drool that accidentally hits any of the bikes.:D

    Well, um, actually, we're going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    I have a 30gal compressor and air tools but you can bring your too the more tools we have the faster we get everything done. The jack and stands will help I have 3 sets but we can fit 5 to 7 trucks out back at once so the more stands we have the more we can do.
