Houston Install Party

We're still on for this, right?

I have a new tire carrier, which is going to require time in Geo's shop to get the old one off and the new one on.

I also have a new CB to install- obviously that can be done out in the yard.

hehe..beware Chris....BeWaReeee......! More than 1 set of eyes are on them doors of yours!

27th it is...I have a couple control arm skids I need to put on, after that - I can help out wherever.

Bizarro - there's that lovely car ramp that's got your name written all over it for your Woods SS relo bracket install and other stuff u wanna put on - we did mine and Rob's on it last install party and it worked out great!

possible front locker install and upper control arm bushings

Looks like this will be my first chance to come out and meet some fellow Jeepers in the area. I don't particularly have anything to install (jeeperjennie, I'm still interested in those tow hooks!) but I'm all for seeing other people's setups and helping out with the manual labor. I figured wrenching and picking other's brains will be the best way for me to learn more about my JK.

Oh, and I'll make sure I keep one eye on my half doors the whole time. I'd like to leave with them.

Joe, hurry up and fix the damn Mr2 and I'll detail and sell it for you.

sounds like a plan . if the weather's nice and we're able to roll with the windows off, you're going to need something bigger.

I figured I've pushed my luck long enough. I have an evap can that needs to be relocated. That and a list of stuff for George, as soon as time allows.
What time is this thing kicking off? I have some training scheduled until about noon.

Hey guys, just a quick question on this weekend's festivities. Is anyone bringing their significant others? My wife is going to eventually be a Jeep Princess and ride shotgun on any wheeling meetups I make it out to and I wanted to see if there'd be ladies hanging out while the wrenching is going on. I'm assuming things will get rolling around 10am-ish???

there probably be a few wimmins here...........

I will be here for sure lol and I am sure a few other wives will show up as well.

OH AND.....

BYO FOOD
BYO DRINKS

We will fire up the pit sometime around Lunch

i thought the host's were suppose to supply food and drinks

haha I'm not rich like you Mr. Price

me, rich, in my dreams

Got a big box of shit shipping from Cali tomorrow!

My MUCH better half will definitely be there. Along with a couple teens- one of which has a real knack at bugging the crap out of Joe, Jody, and Geo.

We have a plasma cutter waiting for him this time!
