| Birf Party Sept. 20 in Rogue River
I talked to Al tonight, and we're on for (moved to Sep 20th) to get his front axle back in shape. He has a rebuild kit ordered, so we just need to nail down the few special tools we'll need, and of course the food and beverages.... 
Tools: We'll need a monster socket just like the one Steve has.... a pull scale, I have one, I just need to find it....  I have a torque wrench, but it's pretty lame... so a nice T-wrench would be good... Al may have a good one...
And then the usual stuff, 10 12 14 17 19 mm sockets and wrenches, and lots of rags and cleaning stuff...
Also, a list of all the proper torques would be good, instead of looking them up one at a time as we go... I think they are all a little different from the 80 Series torques, but probably the same as the mini trucks, as the 40 series (1975+) and mini's use the same rebuild kit I believe.
So, who's in? Who's out, and if it matters, I hear Al has a garage... so...

| Hmm...
That's Garett's Sourdough party weekend, which I just tonight realized I can probably attend for (at least) one night...
Is the date definite?

| My camping date is definite. Too bad it coincides with Al's rebuild, I have done 40, 60 & 80 series front ends numerous times and have all necessary tools. No worries though, I'm sure you guys can knock it out no problem.

| Well the first two weekends I'm out (2nd/3rd and 9th/10th). Then count me out the whole last week of August (25th+).
So it's only the 16th/17th and 23rd/24th I have availible.
So what about the weekend after Garrett's Sourdough trip (16th/17th)? Then we can fix anything Travis broke on his FJC that weekend.

Sept. sounds good to me, the weather should be a little cooler, besides the FJ 40 is not my daily driver.
Be safe, and we will catch you latter.

| I've got the next few weeks off, then I'm busy the last week of August. Sept is pretty open, then Oct-Dec I will have NO life (Harry & David's season).
I can probably get a day off here and there,......

| I just talked to Al, and we're going to try again for the 20th. So speak up if you can make it. Al has a garage, so it'll be a little nicer than Steve's sweet backyard.... Hehe
Al and I are pretty open as far as dates, so if the 20th doesn't work for too many people we can switch it... So pipe up! | |
