Wrench Party. Sun. March 14th

hey brad how we lookin at for parking due to the snow the last week.......

Sorry for taking so long to respond. I am in Rancho Mirage on a work conference. This is the first chance I had to check this post. Parking will not be an issue. The road and driveway are completely clear. In regards to wives, please feel free to bring them. Unfortunately my wife will only be there until noon. I think Jon's wife will be their in the morning and possibly throughout the day, but I'm not sure on that. He will need to chime in on the exacts.
 
Im down the street from Rancho Mirage if you wanna do a night run in scottmcneals back yard? :D
 
sweet.. ok well my lady is coming and she knows how to get greasy but will be leaving sometime around noon to go get my rug rats from the inlaws...
 
My wife is coming until noon for sure, maybe later if she decieds to stay and hang out with other wives. Im also bringing my 14 year old brother, hes had a tough upbringing (his dads in prison), but he wants to wrench on hot rods and off road vehicles when he grows up so I thought it would be a perfect time for him to learn a few things and get a bit dirty. Dont forget , time changes Sunday and moves an hour ahead so set your clocks forward Saturday night. See you then.
 
Someone want to pm me address? I miss it?

I would like to help....seeing as I'll need help soon on some installs.

I have a floor jack and limited tools.....

We would love to have you join us.
 
Here's my address: 41671 Island Drive Forest Falls, CA 92339
Using google maps or something will probably get you lost. Use the directions posted below. You guys may want to organize yourselves to meet at the bottom of the mtn at the ranger station. Over half the guys coming have already been here and one of them could lead the way. If you guys are coming at different times you might want to have guys meet at like 8:00 am then maybe a second group at a slightly later time for the guys who aren't such morning people. I will let you guys figure that stuff out.
Directions to the Hicks’ House:

You will take 38 up into the Mountains.
You will drive about 10 miles past the ranger station until the road splits
Highway 38 curves up to the left and Valley of the Fallls Rd. will vear off to the right.
Take Valley of the Falls Rd. to the right.
You will drive about 3 more miles.
Here is when things get confusing. Good Luck.
You will turn left on Island Drive-(Dirt Road with small wooden sign).
There is a house under construction on the left corner. (Look Closely because it is now almost finished) Island Drive is just past the house.
If you miss Island Drive the road you are on will dead end at the camping/parking area about 100-200 yards up. Turn around.
Once on Island Drive you will drive through a dried up creek bed (in total, you will only have to drive about 75 yards)
The road will split in three directions on the other side of the creek. There is a giant Oak tree in the center of the
road with the names of all the homeowners on it. You will see our sign on the tree.
Turn right at the Oak Tree Stay on this dirt road until it ends.
Our house is the tan and white house on the right side at the end of the road. Ignore the "Keep Out" signs. Just a crazy neighbor.



I know I'm not supposed to post up my address and exactly how to get to me on a public forum, but honestly if some thug is crazy enough to try to get to my house then let him come. I have plenty of CRAZY redneck neighbors with lots of guns including myself. Our neighborhood is ready for armagedon and could probably take down a small army. You gotta love crazy rednecks.

im Bringing my kid and my GF. Is there any snow up there?

We still have about 1-2 feet, but no worries about the roads. They are all completely clear. You may get a little muddy though. All the melting snow has caused some serious mud in places.

:shocked: should i be worried about my surroundings?! :wow:.... lol...:wave:

that sounds not much different than everyday life here in LA.... no worries... Right Julio?! :D


No worries. Most of my neighbors are Jeep guys so if they realize your a Jeep guy then they will treat you like family.
 
I should be there right around noon. Gotta take my daughter to her class at 10, then get back and head up the hill. maybe earlier, but 12 at the latest.

On a side note, I will leave my wife at home, but I will bring my 14 y/o son since there is going to be others his age there.

I'll also bring my bag o' tools just in case. I do have some heavy duty jack stands. If you need them as well, give me a call.

Just a heads up, My 14 year old brother may head home at noon with my wife if he is bored and she decides to call it a day. Just didnt want your son to get there and my brother possibly already gone home. He is still more than welcome to come though and Ill tall my little bro that he may have some friends his age coming to entice him to stick it out with us until we are done.

I have a few other guys bringing jack stands so we should be okay.
 
I was just thinking that we are probably going to need more stools and creepers. I only have one stool and creeper. We are probably going to want to have the ability to roll around a bit. If any of you guys coming have a rolling stool or creeper then bring it. See you guys tomorrow. Should be a great day.
 
Bumo for evening crown!!!

See you guys tomorrow! not sure on the time as i am beat from the wrench party in garden grove!
