but bring your tools if you have them, just so I don't have worrying keeping up with whose tools we borrowed.

Ill be there around 12:30

Not the same without you Brother Clutchee, Greg and Bodean had to work EXTRA hard keeping up with us. We could have used your help.
Although Rob only need help being held back. That 80 Clutchee, is BIG.


Here is a couple of pics from my phone.

See you at Gray Rock,

Can't wait.

 

[Clutchee]

Thanks Chris

Can't wait......

 

[Bodean]

Yeah, that 80 will be one of the biggest there. Especially when he puts the 37's on it. Missed ya Clutchee!

Chris,

Thanks for lettin us pretend we were wrenchin pros today. You sure saved us lots of time using your lifts and air.

If someone asked me to spend half my Sunday at work, they better bring lots of beer. If memory serves, YOU provided the beer!

Thanks again

Muchos Gracias to Team Tolleson for the generous work day. I put a 2.5 inch lift on my 80 and it lifted it 4"!! I guess th old springs were shot.

Pretty fun to listen to 7 different air tools simultaneously working on 7 cruisers...

Good work day guys...
Jeff, thanks for all the help with the brakes and Chris thanks for letting me cruise all over rankin county in your truck hunting for parts.

Barry and I made it home without loosing brake power....but it did grind all the way, hopefully that grind will go away with the new shoes.

I ordered all the cylinders for my brakes last night. I think I got a deal at CCOT if you can believe it. Oh and I got all new springs with those cylinders...figured i might as well replace em all while they are open.

Good times...

that made for an interesting ride home. Sounded like the rear axle wanted to shake off everytime we stopped. Got some strange looks from the motorists on hwy 49.

My truck is still at Chris's. Didn't have the tools or knowhow to separate the way-rusted rotors from the lugs and housing. Thanks for your willingness to take it on at the shop Chris.

pb blaster and a big damn hammer (martillo) should do the trick.

tried that for awhile, wouldn't budge. I think they're going to use heavier guns at the machine shop.

You need to hit it, walk away and drink a few beers, come back and hit it while it's not looking.
Was your parking brake on?

 

[LoneRanger]

Was your parking brake on?

Yes, but we're talking front brake rotors and hubs, off the vehicle, sitting on the pavement.

Whats done is done. They used air hammers on it. I pick it up soon as I can find a ride over there.

 

[Bodean]

I think "Country" used Rankin County Mojo on it. Maybe a little "whoop ass" even! Glad they got it fixed. Now stay on the road until the ride!

[Bodean]

You hush! Get back on ebay!
