Northern Virginia Roll Call

Damn, i will be working all next weekend.

 

Funny...I've never been informed of such a day...I'll have to double check with the wife. Maybe she just forgot!
If anyone wants to go at the last second, I'll be join no matter what so just PM me.

 

Anyone want steaks on the grill, good company and maybe some alcohol today? All I need is someone to help me with the truck. I have my UCA's and need a hand installing them if anyone is game.

I have an impact gun, most of the tools.

Willing to get the appropriate tools if its something that can be locally sourced that I do not have already.

Pickling fork and a big ass hammer should be a quick run to sears and depot, but am at a loss on where to get the other tool. I do have some big C clamps and maybe could use a few sockets to improvise.

Also have my steel break lines if anyones up for it too.

No torque wrench,...

 

I have a torque wrench if you need to borrow one. Its a half inch, not 3/8. I got it from sears and AFAIK its pretty accurate. I wont be able to help though sorry. Wife is off this weekend and ive got a crap ton of landscaping work that needs to be done before the weeds take over.

 

im in stafford, but ill actually be in harrisonburg that weekend

 

Finally got my Blitzpro mounted up today...I may move it up a little to split the difference between "Toyota" and the bottom of the grille, but I got tired of finagling with it today so I'm done for now.

Wheres the "on" pics?

 

Well, I probably looked like a complete idiot taking these on the backside of Pleasant Valley, but it was the closest place with both the least amount of ambient light and a little distance to see the light.

The pictures are a little shitty but it was all I could do with the iPhone...

Hi-Beams only:

UCA's done.

 

what the fuck???

NGK spark plugs on the driver side, and DENSO on the passenger side? from the factory this way...

 

Its how mine were also.

 

BTW, don't drop your spark plug gapper into your plate bumper... I do think mine is never to be seen again... now i gotta wait for a buddy to come over and loan me his .79 cent spark plug gapper... jesus mary and joeseph, how does a freaking tune up turn into such an affair...

 

Who gaps plugs anymore lol. Most plugs are pre gapped

 

I gap my plugs.. i dont trust pre gap.. if they're god then i dont change it

 

I buy my plugs from the dealer pre gapped, I always check them to try and get them as close to .041 as I can, last 6 i bought they ranged from .039-.046.. IMO its well worth taking the couple seconds and check them.

 

is there someone in stafford with a black single cab rockin a lime green SCS sticker? i saw it parked today at one of the FD stations and thought it must be from here or another forum since SCS is a small company right now

 

Same here. You never know if they were handled badly or even bumped hard enough to mess the gap up

 

Never seent it which FD was it?

 

hartwood volunteer on 17. i had never seen it until today and i drive by there all the time

 

Hmm..idk i never go down there. Must be someone on here though
