Hey Lyndall! if you make it, bring my dang thermal.. I was hunting for it this past weekend! :D

Looks like Rob is thinking about showing up noon-ish.. I hope you make it and bring your wife!

If I make it out I'll bring your thermal. Not sure if the wife and kid will come out or not. We've got plans for the evening so I wouldn't be staying late. pm me your address.

Frack me..
Ok, so it appears that Bianca will cook Brisket for the adults and chicken tenders for the kids. I need to know who all is bringing kids so we get enough chicken for them. Also - I got the Brisket, is anyone willing to bring potato salad or side items by chance?

Sure.....beans, potato salad, some chips....what ever jumps out at me in the store.

I will likely be bringing 2 kids, might leave them with mother in-law....still in the air.


Lets review my list

1. sides
2. Torch
3. 19 mm socket
4. Ruffies to slip Randy

Anything else?

Hey I bring my own ruffies, they are sold in cases of thirty
I'll bring a couple of 19mm sockets and an impact in case it comes to having to take the rad out. I'm gonna swap my thirds and fix the CV here at the house before I come down in case problems arise and I need parts. Still not sure why my front diff is leaking tinkered with it and made sure the cv was seated all the way and the seal was on but it still leaks like crazy, I'm gonna go get a new seal and try that.

I mentioned in front of Ethan you were coming, and he asking if Amy was coming too... I told him yes, so apparently my Kids are excited at the thought of them coming over and a sleep over.. but I understand. My kids are at the age where we can go outside and leave them alone to do whatever.. I am not so sure about Joshua.. :D

Hey are you bringing the Bob-Taco!!??? Sweet!

I have broken a total of 3.. I have a nice Impact but have not removed the radiator yet to try to make use of it. I wonder.. my Air hose is only 25' and it might suck if you are trying to use airtools on something that is not RIGHT in front of the garage.. so if you have a hose you want to bring or something, it may not be a bad idea.

I think the torch will help alot, somebody must have coated it in red lock-tite.......but for sure bring that pipe wrench just in case.

He is a little monster, but that would be the reason for me bringing my wife. LOL.
I pretty much doubt that we will leave the kids with Brandy's mom

One way or another we are going to find out soon enough what is holding it up.

Could have been cross threaded by the previous owner and just forced on.

That is a pretty big bolt to cross thread and a hardned crankshaft, not that it couldn't be done, but it would require a real lack of tallent.

That's cool! We welcome him and think we have a pretty kid friendly house.

I still don't understand why the damn thing would go a full turn, then get stuck. Maybe there was a ton of corrosion in the bolt?

i am second guessing the full turn part now. I know I got some rotation on it, but maybe I cracked my socket and the loud metalic snapping noise I was hearing was actually the socket snapping the crack over the head of the bolt. I feel stupid for not noticing it sooner but.. who knows. I don't think the bolt is rounded yet, but the edges are certainly not that sharp so.. I think an impact hitting it dead on is the next step. I have one that does like 650lb at 90psi.. crank the Compressor to 110 and get almost 80olb of torque out of it while it is hot.. (fingers crossed)

GD, I hope not.. that would Suck!
