I'm Off Work Today

So....anyone wanna come over and assist with putting on a few springs and shocks? That is, if you don't mind me being sick...got a nasty head cold. This is day 3, so I should be over the worst of it.

I just need a pair of experienced hands to help with the install. No need for a spring compressor, either. Should make the job a little easier. And I live about 5 miles from the beach, so the breeze is a little cooler here than inland. Hey...maybe afterward a trip to the beach would be in order.

*edit* I can go to you....and I'll bring beer. Ice cold beer. Yum.

Re: I'm Off Work Today

If you only knew how bad I feel, even after I took the Tylenol cold stuff....Thanks for the well wishes!

PS - I usually use my sick time for fun stuff (I figure I've earned it), but this is one time it's being used for the intended purpose.

Re: I'm Off Work Today

Dave, did you get this installed? What are you adding to Frankenstien? I was thinking about your idea about having some of the guys help out with my lift...how about we have a So Cal mode day? Your springs and shocks, my lift etc... I guess the only thing would be a location. I may still take it to a shop but would consider a mod day.
