Will likely start the Camber arms Thursday night at 7:00p and continue in with the rear springs that night or early Friday morning (I don't think you need a spring compressor), then getting the compressor and doing the fronts on Friday morning as well. Not sure it's a good plan, but it's a plan.

I start school this week too...only 1 class since I work full time, but it should be interesting. Analytical Mechanics II (Dynamics) at UCD.

Junkie, I figured you were deploying (why the heck do you guys get deployed so frequently out of Carson?), so thought it would be good for you to get out with the group on a cruise.

He's in the USAF.

You can probably do the free rental at the parts store for the compressor.

Since I planned to have people hangout for a bit, you don't have tobe there that early.

However, if the group decides that is too early, we can discuss a different time as well. I was gonna say 8:00, but that would be too much time between meeting and eating:o

I worked on them pretty much non stop from 7:00p Thursday until 6:30 a Friday. No issues and went well, but it took a lot longer for me to do because 1, I sheared a strut mount bolt, 2: had to do the rear passenfger spring twice, 3: getting the rear passenger side camber arm really was a big PIA. I got it all on though!

I am working with G2 to support this event. They seem to be pretty interested.

For those not familiar with G2 (get out from under your rock:D) check out their web site http://www.g2usa.com.

Curious where that dent in the lower rear door came from:(

I like how it looks. The setting I had the rear camber arms didn't allow enough adjustment by the mechanic, so he did the fronts, then sent the car home with me to readjust the rears and bring the car back. Did so this morning and the car is now properly aligned. I haven't seen it yet, but I imagine it looks much the same (maybe a little more tuck in the rear).
