I'm going to have to play Sunday by ear, but if I can swing by for a few minutes I will (since you're just down the street from me).

I'll throw my caliper piston spreader in the trunk if I can swing by

Well, it was a somewhat successful maintenance/mod day at Bill's. Except...

- 1/2 of axle nuts replaced before this happened:


- RioS2k's sway bars... Well, they shipped two fronts. So I took the extra

- Swallow's ball joints wouldn't pop

- Rio's lock screws on his rotors wouldn't loosen up. Bill had to drill 'em out.
I did one side and Bill did the other. Then I accidentally installed two outside pads on the rear rotor... We fixed it before putting it all back together

- Bill went to fire up the grill for burgers and he quickly ran out of propane

Here are a few of the relatively worthless pics I took





This is absolutely BRILLIANT!










Good meeting everyone! Special thanks to Bill!
