Wrenching Party

[x2elite]

Ok so I have a ton of stuff I need to get done on my XJ, and I'd like to get it all done next weekend so I can have a shakedown run the weekend after at the park.

Things I have to do:
Install my new steering box
Install my new HD trac bar, and mount
Install my 8.8, and setup the shock mounts
Install the new bushings in my lower control arms
Mount my tires on my new beadlocks, and put them on the jeep.

Anyone who wants to help is invited, and the wrenching party will most likely be at my Dad's shop in Texarkana. I would even happily supply some beer, and probably some grub for the day as well.

Is that like a 5hr drive from Garland? All along Int Hwy 30?

I wish I had the money to come help you out bro. But you know how unemployment is.

 

[x2elite]

It's about 3hrs from DFW, and I completely understand Kurt. No worries .

Hey Twitch, I thought yall were done. What else is there to do? I can go help you this weekend.
And if Twitch goes up there, I'll go with him.

 

[lwbtex]

I can maybe swing by for a few hours on Saturday. How far is Texarkana from Shreveport?

 

[x2elite]

Its a little over an hour from Shreveport. The shop is actually a few miles outside of Texarkana on the Shreveport side.

I can't tomorrow bro. One of our cooks got sent to the hospital today with 2nd degree oil burns. I have no clue what he was doing but he got 500degree oil all over his arm and on his face. So me and my dad are takin over tomorrow, can't leave him. I can help you Wed. around 2pm or Thur. around noon. And uhm, gas money? Haha! I'm not going 3hours in your XJ w/ death wobble. We can meet up and we'll take the WJ. I get twice as many miles per gallon than you do and I feel safer in mine at high speeds; unlike from what I observed last time I was behind you at 70mph lol

 

[Texas Twitch]

death wobble getting fixed tomorrow punkass! no worries about tomorrow, give me a shout tomorrow evening and we'll work it out....

 

[SpartyKrunk]

Ok bro. Still, mine's more comfy and look on the bright side; you won't have to drive.

OUCH!! Tell the cook that I know a good workman's comp attorney. LOL! :wave:

 

[SpartyKrunk]

So do I. And he doesn't need an attorney. My father pays his medical bills in full. He treats his employees well. (I wish he'd treat me like an employee.

 

[ElkyRacer]
