Gonna have a few evening wrenching sessions at Jude's shop to help him with the lift on his 100 and maybe a few side jobs for those that need it.

Dates: Wednesday 9/18, Thursday 9/19 and maybe Friday 9/20 if needed.

What: Lift on Jude's 100, Sean needs his diffs drained and filled on his 80 if it fits his schedule.

Time: 4:15 - till we quit :)

Where: 110 Henderson Rd, Lafayette

Thanks Jude I put 4:15 till we quit, I'll also add an event to our Facebook page.

Anyone that can lend a hand it'll be appreciated or if you need to tackle a few of your own projects you need a hand with are welcome as well :)
 
Jude ya gona be able to leave it parked at the tire shop while ya work on it?

ps ya got lights?
 
I am thinking we would install in the parking lot and adjust the bars on the tire shop's slab. I tried a friend with a high trailer to get it in my shop but his trailer doesn't have ramps.
 
Fronts done looking good :)

It worked out well Jude did a good job soaking everything a few days prior so everything came off without issues and two 40's later we were done :D we wound up getting it done in 2hrs. We'll knock out the rear this evening.
 
We struck out tonight and couldn't finish the job:( We couldn't break the top shock nuts loose had a strap wrench, pipe wrench and flex head ratchet wrenches on it and he's been soaking them a few days. Would have cut them but his saw was at my house, D'oh. Tomorrow he is going to cut them and it should make short work of the job from there and done in an 1 1/2 or 2hrs. Can someone lend him a hand tomorrow evening I'll be headed to Ville Platte with Holden for a shooting event Saturday :) thanks

Awesome Sean thanks :) I'm sorry I'm going to miss you again I had the Marlin diff plugs in the truck the last two evenings in case you got a chance to come by to drain those diffs. We'll keep trying bud :D
 
I am going to work on it over the weekend at my house. The back seems simple enough for me to handle.

The cv boots are leaking worst than before. I put about 6 miles on it after the front lift. The grease shouldn't be gray right?
 
Thanks John I know you'd be in for lending a hand if you were home bud, Cheers! Jude that maybe a good idea to retreat to shelter bud it's going be ugly this evening by the looks if it. I'll text you Sean's number so you can let him know your plan. Text me and let know how it goes :)
