March 23, 2024 tech day (2 Viewers)

[matzell]

The plan is to pull the t-case apart on my 94 FZj80 and install both the 10% underdrive gears and the 3:1 low range set. I am not sure we will have time to do more than one case. Maybe two?? If anyone has an extra case they want to bring and bench build, we can try that as well?

My lift will have the 80 on it but there is room in the driveway to do whatever, drink and or heckle the rest of us.

HMMM sounds like I need to pull a t-case

Hey guys, Betsy offered to install steering wheel covers for anyone who wants it. I imagine she can do 2-3 during tech day before her fingers give out.

She is asking for a $100 donation for her time and supplies per wheel. Does not include cover.

Let me know who needs one done.

She ask that they be real leather and prefers ones that are pre punched.

Attached is mine for reference.

You can pull the wheel ahead of time or pull it when you come over.

Hey guys I do not think we set a time...

I am thinking 9 am?

Edward, can you be up by then

 

[captainva]

You said 10am right? JK I can be there at 9 no problem

 

[Land Shark]

hmmm, think Ive heard that before

 

[doseman]

You might need to specify Eastern, Central, Mountain or Pacific time.

 

[Land Shark]

Good point doseman!!!

Well, if the truck aint here, kinda hard to work on it.... Next in line please!

If you need to get it over Friday night just to be here on time, we can talk about that too, lol!

 

[matzell]

Please post up what you plan to work on, or spectate and heckle!

I do not know how long the first one is going to take, but you may want, bring parts needed to do each job. That includes, fluids, RTV, parts, shop rags etc. I do not mind helping and using the shop but consumables cost money.

I have watched a couple of videos and am hoping to get the first one done in 2 1/2 hours or so, maybe less.?!?!?!?! How many sets of t-case gears can we get done in one day? Edwards will be first (if it is here on time) and you guys need to fight over flip a coin for who is 2nd, and possible 3rd. Not sure we can get 4 in? If they are out of the truck then that is a different story.

 

[Land Shark]

if there is time for me Id like to be one of them. With that said if there are others 2 or more I don't mind stepping aside

 

[Land Shark]

oh and Betsy is doing my steering wheel cover

 

[Land Shark]

@matzell confirming that all I need to bring for the steering wheel beautification is the original kit? Betsy has the other better components ie thread etc?

 

[davidp14]

I'm coming to spectate/heckle/day-drink. Since I don't have a transfer case to do, I'll leave cville at a leisurely pace...but probably still beat ed there.
