    I can weld, but dont have a welder at my house.

    if someone wants to lug along a 110 welder, I can knock it out

    Should be fun. Next week we can get a list of who wants to accomplish what to make sure we have all the needed tools covered

    if you guys want to bring along some food ( burgers, dogs, chips, beer, etc)

    I can fire the grill up as well.

    For those of you doing any suspension work, I recommend spraying down all nuts and bolts with PB blaster for a couple days before the mod day.

    i have a set of jack stands, some basic power tools, and a basic socket set with a few random deep sockets etc... I can also bring some beer or whatever so just let me know what everyone likes.

    anything special I need to get in order to do the actual suspension install?

    i'm also trying to order some new tires for my new konig countersteer wheels but i can't decide between a 265/75/16 and a 285/75/16 in the goodyear duratracs. 285's look better imo, but i don't know if it's worth the extra 15lbs per tire and the rubbing headache of going with that size. is anyone at the mod day going to have a 3" lift 265/75 combination I can check out in person?

    5. SManZ - O2 sensor bung if anybody can get a welder :) Otherwise, I'll be there to meet and lend a hand. I'll be bringing a jack, 4 stands, impact wrench, general hand tools, torque wrench.

    And I'm an early riser. I can be there as early as 9. Might want to get some of the harder stuff knocked out early on before it gets too hot?
