Things to get done before Winterfest

[bshaw]

shit shower and shave!

 

[sgtmack]

You're going to shower? It's not spring yet.

I might not have the locker done, but the 4.56 gears are going in now. I took it out with the front done in front wheel drive to break them in, and it drives soooo much better.

I'm still working on a warmer tent. I may have to bring the dog to keep me warm.

I have one of these without the fan and it works great.:flame:

To much, and no place warm to do it, but the biggest thing is get my sliders on correctly. They're not attached to the pinch rail.
Mack we should have a wrenching fest. I didn't realize you are in Ft, Wayne. Hell we're practically neighbors!

 

[sgtmack]

A pre-Winterfest wrench fest might be a good idea. I have a BIG shop to work in. With a welder.
Life is good.

The '95 Trailbuggy needs a tranny...and various other small things...however I don't know if I'm going to be able to make the trip out to wherever it is that the official winterfest is being held...

well, got the starter replaced last night, and I think that my headlamp switch is the parking lamp circuit problem.
Gota tear that out tonight and check it with the DMM.
it's about the last thing left.
at least now all the connectors are cleaned out.

If any one wants to come over and wrench on their junk, I can do either the second or third Saturday in Feb. I work on semi's, so I have a good size shop, and a lot of tools. I'm still working on getting a plasma, but I have a kick ass MIG. And an assortment of large hammers. I made a new drive shaft for mine this week, so we can do just about every thing. If any one is interested let me know. My shop is about 20 minutes south of Fort Wayne just off I-69.

 

[macgyvr]

we've got plama and migs on this side of town...just working out of 2 car garages tho...

if there is a get together, let me know, i might swing over...

That putts you off Saturday the 6th of January right? I could work that in for an evening/night wrenching. I have been thinking of picking up a new set of rear springs before Winterfest, and getting my SYE, 1.34"BB, and C/V Drive shaft on.

Right now, no.
This stupid Kansas City deal I was handed has my schedule all funked up for the entire winter/spring.

The 'revised' schedule for this stupid WMS roll-out crap has me in B'ham the weekend of WF.

This is what happens when you let engineers and managers try and run projects that floor people have to use. Supervisors end up fixing it.....
