North Texas / DFW Wrench Day May 17,2008

I am pleased to announce that we have been granted permission to use the maintenance facilities at the Veteran's Memorial Airpark on May 17, 2008 from 10am to 6pm.



We will have jacks, jack stands and air compressor available for us to use. There will be free Hamburgers and hot dogs served and drinks will be available at the Airpark ($0.50 Cokes,etc..).

Directions:

The easiest way to the airpark is to go to 820 north and exit N.Main. After turning south on N.Main, proceed south to NW 38th St. Turn right at NW 38th St. (by fire station) and follow it all the way down. You will pass through a pipe gate and turn immediately left. Go past the hangars and through the gate. You will turn left before you get to the airplanes. I will post signs at Main and NW 38th.



PM me if you need my phone# or if you have any questions.

Hope to See You There!!!

Digger

Re: North Texas / DFW Wrench Day May 17,2008

Cool; I will come to be sociable for once. If I haven't finished wiring up my new on-board compressor by then I may work on that, otherwise I'll be available for advice or help on other's trucks - I've installed enough lifts on FJC's to be pretty good at it now. Plus, I used to make a living as a mechanic a long time ago.

Edit: Maybe maybe my Demello rear bumper will be here by then - any week now, waiting... waiting...

I'll let you do most of the work, but can show you all the short cuts and etc. Not that difficult of a job.

Yep. If you want, I'll bring my spring compressors and an impact wrench to turn them with, but you'll do most of the real work.
