Wrench Day, Feb. 20, 10am

[warpdriv]

Hi Everyone,

Edwin at Land Cruiser Specialists has opened his shop to us to work on our rigs. This is also an excuse to just hang out too. If you do plan on coming to work on your rig, please limit it to minor tasks. Nothing big like knuckle rebuild, steering conversion, or the like. This will give people the opportunity to use the lift.

The shop is located at:

Land Cruiser Specialist
Edwin Kincaid, Owner
5309 Jeff Davis
Austin, Tx 78756
512-420-0012

Hope to see y'all there.

Hmm. I need to install new brake pads and rotors on my 100. I'll bring the beer.

 

[AustinTexasFJ]

Ill prolly role in just to say whats up. dont really have anything to work on except a SOA

 

[meatloaf]

Jeff, do we need to bring our own tools? I think I can make it. If so, I'll bring some beers and some sort of grub...

 

[AustinTexasFJ]

most likely.

 

[green grass hopper]

no don't bring any tools i have tools ya'll can use. what time do ya'll want to start? i was thinking around 9am and finishing around 3pm.
the only things i would need for ya'll to bring (other then tools) are the thing you would need if you were going to do the job at your house.
i have a 10k lift ya'll can use and plenty of air tools if needed along with hand tools. i will most likely be doing a V8 swap in a fj-40 with my son but i will be happy to lend a hand if needed.
see ya'll soon.

ill bring some of my own. I mean let say 10 guys all needing a 13mm at the same time hhhaaha

 

[green grass hopper]

thats cool as long as yours don't stay and mine leave. :>)
but i don't think there will be too many folks needing a 13mm any how.

 

[Lake Rat]

I'll prolly drop by to lend an extra hand if someone needs it, and shoot the .

Iam going to say yes. But who Iam I to say..

There is only one lift, and in the past we try not to put a truck on it that would hog the whole lift for a entire day. So we need to plan accordingly.

If I can find my 100 series rotors (front) I will either bring them or give them to Mark. Mark, still have my number? I could give ya the rotors to bring over lunch one day. I am cruiserless.

Cool, let me know what you want for them.

Cool! It would be good to see ya. Maybe we need to have a wrenchfest over at your house.

 

[davegonz]

Yeah, wrenching and Tucker's home brew!

 

[peepers]

Cool, let me know what you want for them.

Honestly Dave, what ever you want to pay me for 'em. If you are in Austin I can bring them to work one day and you can just come and grab them. I don't have a truck anymore and if/when I do again it won't be one that can take these brakes.

All yours.

 

[davegonz]

Peepers, where do you work? Maybe we can do lunch this week or next before the wrench fest.

 

[fj40charles]

Hey Edweiner,

Did you lose your grip? Good to see you working again. Might keep you out of trouble.

Charles
