Just a quick drone shot and video

 

wish I could have made it to this.

 

Next one will be in the spring.

 

I have a few things I might have to get done before spring but if not I’ll make the spring meet.

 

what part of nh are you

 

Fremont

 

What might you need done? And, do you have a dry spot to work?

While I can't, and won't speak for anyone,, I'm sure there are several us that could, and would give a hand if needed.

 

We will be resuming wrenching in the spring and might try for a cold weather meet-up or 2 as well.

Out of curiosity...whatcha got?
We have done a mod day at my shop(Lawrence ma) with more small ones planned ahead there.
Space can be limited sometimes so 4-6 is best. Can only fit 2 inside at a time.

There are a few of us close to you.

 

Well, depending, I might take you up on that. Just waiting on those wings to come back from paint. I REALLY was hoping to have them by yesterday, or even this morning.

 

Well.. a lot actually. I need to replace my cv axle’s. While they are out I wanted to replace the drivers side ecg bearing which I have and the tool to install. I have new wheel bearing assembly's and new boss c/o. and just because I’m in it that far I also have new JBA upper control arms. I have boss c/o on it now that are both leaking and L/R upper control arms that I’m not really happy with.

 

I did the C/O myself years ago and the upper control arms but have never done a cv axle and not sure I want to try.

 

Of cousre, you are welcome anytime sir. Happy to even make a plan around it.
Matt and I have bumper plans there coming up soon. That will be a few days over the course of a few weekends.

 

CV's aren't too bad. Just test your patience and sanity sometimes.
Sounds like a full list. If you have already done them before and help wrench there's a good chance the front end refresh could be done in a day.

 

It was a very great day......biggest one so far.

 

Just replacing CV axles? I didn't think it was too bad. I think removing the axle nut for the first time might be a challenge depending on what tools you have. Rebuilding an axle looks like a pain though.

 

speaking of cv axels I want to buy from cvj. I'm at 2.5 lift. would I be ok with the ones close to original or these ones for a lift. says's it needs 1" clearance?

Lol that first photo. Looks like my light is out. You somehow captured the LED flashing at the exact moment.

 

For saying someone else needs to be the photographer you did pretty good jer

 

I want to do a complete brake job (calipers, rotors, dust shields, full drums, some lines) this winter. I've done just about everything on vehicles before except brakes so why not jump right into the deep end?

I have a heated garage to do the work in... Is there someone who is familiar with the job that would like to help? I think of one of us knows what they're doing and I take care of disassembly the day before it could get done in a day.

 

Today was awesome, couldn't have got my u joints in without y'all always good to put names to faces and see the familiar ones!
