One of my local friends and I are going ot be installing a lift on his XJ. Not sure on the date yet but it should be in about 2 weeks or so. We are also swaping out his 3.07 geared axles with the 3.73 geared ones I have. It will be a long day for us and any and all help would be appreciated.

Let me know when you figure out a date. I'll check with my walking daytimer and see if I can get over there.

What kind of lift?

We are putting my old AAL in his XJ and I scored him a used 3" coil for the front. The kicker is we are swaping my "other axles" under his so he will have a lower ratio then the crappy 3.07's! Oh yea It's Billy by the way. The guy you coudl not remember his name! LOL! :doh:
 
Ah, the little guy :) Thought he was dead set on going 6 or nothing.... oh desperation is an ugly thing :)

I'll try to get over there if the wife hasnt already commited me to some sort of slavery. Shout out a date as soon as you guys know. You got some good spring compressors lined up? Got him hitting the thing with PB?
 
Yea Got to get him doing the PB Blaster dance soon! Compresors are not a need this time bc we are going to be swaping the front out at the same time!
 
let me know the date, if we have time might try and run the sand pit on sunday if you have your junk in one piece.

I work until 330 mon-sat. So I would be happy to come on over either after work or an all day sunday deal (as long as you don't kick me out!). I can't say that I would be much help, but I would still like to come watch and learn. (I have watched my friend work on his RX7 so many times it rediculous!). Just give a little advance notice!
 
Well he is sending the $$$ for the front coils Friday. I predict the coils will be here next week some time. The boys turn 6 on the 30th, and the wife booked something today for a party for the weekend of the 6th! Once we get coils in hand we'll start planning! With my unexpected trip to Alabama coming up its hard to say when we will do it. Might see if he can wait till Sunday the 7th. LOL, thats like asking a baby to wait to eat his candy he just bought till he gets home from teh store! :rof:
 
Lol, good luck keeping him calm.

You and me both. Last time I pretty much just gophered the tools, but it helped things along. You learn a lot just watching....

You sound like me: June 14-18 will be in Alabama, June 21-26 will be in Florida, and the 29th the twinns have eye surgery in Atlanta. Maybe Mike will still have those lights we discused! LOL! Damn this month is full!
 
Ghost,

How far are you from Charlotte? If it's one of the next couple of weekends I might be able to swing by and lend a hand or two. :) Let me know what day when you get the chance. :)
