awkward is my middle name, just my way of trying to make sure you show up. Nobody else seems to want to be the video guy so you are the man. Oh wait i don't get to make the decisions around here
Speaking or which, I have a video clip of Bart being swallowed by his 62 at Convenience. My cell phone camera kept shifting to video mode when I pushed the button. It's in MP4 format if anyone has a converter.
I should be able to make it I have to replace the oil cooler and EGR cooler on my truck. We having one of those tech days.
O wrong club this isn't the piece of crap club.

Can someone help me with the parts needed and approx $$$. This is something I'd like to do but need to plan for it. This would be my first major project on my 60.

Call Iron Pig and talk to Cam they have everything that you'll need and he can tell you the cost.

Thank You Sir
So, are members free to do other work on their trucks or is this purely and axle rebuild day?

When I planned this I had thought it would be for an actual task. Also the one in Feb hoping to do a tune up and valve adjustment. We can discuss more at the next meeting.
Sounds good. I like education too 
Merry Christmas folks.

Good initiative, Tom, I'm glad to see this coming together.
I will drive my 60 down to Iron Pig since it sounds like its shaping up to be a big FJ60/62 wagon day.
I'll probably replace tie-rod ends to correct the shimmy-wobbles.

Hey guys what time is this event starting? Any more details on the tech day? I am looking forward to meeting some of the local crew.
Thanks,

Cam had posted up to be there between 9 & 10. Right now it looks like 3 front ends to rebuild knuckles on. Yours, topherbecker & Black Op.
I should see Cam at the meeting tonight and if there are any other details or changes we'll post them up.
See ya soon,
Tom

Do you Think 5 rebuilds would be too many in one day? I still need to do mine, but can wait if need be.
In series, yes. In parallel, no.
I personally think you guys are in for a very long day if you tackle more than one or two axles. Is anyone from Maryland heading down who would be willing to take down the knuckle centering tools? I am not going to make the tech day, and even though they won't be needed someone was going to demonstrate how to use them. If not, I will drop them in the mail to Thornton so you guys will have them.
