Northern Virginia Roll Call

DAMN IT!!! I love me some Dogfish unfortunately I am out all of June. Have fun there! Excellent food and excellent beers!

Hey Ronin...Will you check with John and see if he is interested in helping me wire those fog lights up? If he's not, no biggie I just figured I'de try before going another route.

 

I may be able to do next Tuesday, I am out this Tuesday...under the weather. Spring cold.

Side Note:
So, are we switching meetings from once a month to once a week?

If so, I think that may be too frequent if you're looking for a large group / gathering as weekly meetings will dilute the possibility of having larger meetings. I know most of us are busy and I certainly cannot dedicate one night a week to Tacoma stuff, as such I can only go once a month and picking that week will be at random if there isn't a once a month set meeting.

Just my $.02.

So lets get a head count on who is goin 2night?

 

I've counted these in so far:
Me,
Daniel,
Patrick,
Dave,
WESLEY KAY

 

I tend to just post up for when I'm on call... I'd like to meet up with folks and tell lies and talk trucks when I'm gonna have free time to do it. That's why I post up about the weeks that I'm gonna be down.

 

Not gonna make it 2night sorry fellas next time

 

What time?

 

On my way but traffic blows. Be there around 6:15 I think.

 

So, I am here yall. But how do we ID each other?

 

I'm here wearing a blue quicksilver t shirt. Chris, what do you look like? I think that's your truck outside.

 

On my way

 

Thanks for the tint recommendations. I went with LATint in Sterling. They did a really nice job and nice guys. I did 50 fronts and 15 on the other three. Big difference getting into that thing yesterday late afternoon after sitting in a commuter lot all day.

I'd really like to do the front end "shields" they install, but man it's expensive.

 

I thought I would see if anyone local is interested in this pistol before I put it on gunbroker.com. I have a Colt Lightweight Commander for sale. I've added Simonich Gunner Grips (Army Green) and a Wilson Combat Speed Chute. This is a great gun...I've put several hundred rounds through it without any issues. It comes with the two factory Colt magazines and the original box.





I'm selling it for $1,000, which is a pretty good deal for a Lightweight with extra goodies. If you can find one cheaper with Gunner Grips and a WC Speed Chute, let me know.

Thanks.

That is a pretty gun.

 

This post went all day without a "that's what she said"? I don't log in for a day and it's like everything starts falling apart around here

 

Happy Birthday Ronin

Thanks! Getting old Sucks, and youth is wasted on the young.

 

Happy birthday Ronin!

 

well SH*T...I have a bad left front hub bearing. A shop down the road wants to charge me $730 for the job...stealership wants $865. I've looked up how to DIY and it doesn't appear super difficult. Anyone here ever done one?

EDIT: Happy Birthday Ronin!

 

It can be a pain, since you probably have to press the bearing in with a press. See what Danny charges. Something tells me it is way cheaper than those quotes! I paid $400 for one on my last car, and that was full price at a regular auto shop.
