Just a heads up.. I have a babysitter lined up for 10am til 3/4pm. I won't be up there til around 1030/1040am tomorrow.

I may be able to stay a bit longer, who knows. Don't want to push too long since I never have a sitter!

OK just checked in with my neighbor and he may be using one of the bays to work on his plow truck. That's his main money maker in the winta... We may be a little crammed for space and if so I will pull my sliders off the docket as I can do those another time, its the welding I cant do... Should be able to still work thur most if not all the projects as we've got all day. Unless someone objects we will slide Amanda in as soon as the bay is available so we can be sure to get her stuff done. We may still be able to get 2 jeeps in the bay but we will need to work around the 2 post lift... We'll get er done! :bluesbros:

WAIT WHAT!!!?? Congratulations!!!! :music-rockout:

I have one heavy duty C clamp that I'm pretty sure I just saw.... Maybe someone is rolling thru your way and can help with lifting before coming out? Are these just corners or do they go all the way over the rear wheel well? Wish I new sooner as I was at Genzyme in Framingham until 4 today... :sad:

anyone passing thru Marlboro MA on the way here? Uncle Frank Maybe?

Will we have a jack and stands available if the lift gets tied up? Also, will a torque wrench be available?

My project is the lowest of priorities, I have no problems not doing it at all.

your likely already driving, Marlboro is off 495 but it sounds like she is having Scott take care of it. 8-)

Just wanted to thank everyone who participated in the wrenchfest for all your help. It was a fun day. Special thanks to Jeff for arranging the use of his neighbor's shop (heated, I might add!) and to everyone who went out of their way to make certain we had all the tools we needed to get the work done, like welders, etc. There's lot of members with great skills and knowledge in our club and who are willing to share them.

Yesterdays jobs were interesting and fun ! Thank you to Kurt for supplying the welder and plasma cutter. Without them Jeffs frame job would have been sooo much harder. The food was good , the rum cake was awesome, and thank you Carl for the help with the frame repair. It was a well oiled machine with someone doing something to someones Jeep ! Like we knew what we were doin. That right there shows what type of club we have ! FjR68
