Aww man, I'd like to be there to watch a pro do some swapping.

Just picked up my 9 inch and Waggy 44 for my CJ.

I prolly oughta work on my spring mounts though, I have lots of things to figure out.

What time is early for you guys? What is your possible timeline for completion? Midday possibly?

Thanks,
Blair

I must re address my comment as:

I'd like to watch and possibly lend a hand to Mr Blondin as he properly replaces or swaps StreetDoc's axles so I could possibly gain some knowledge from it. Better? :lol:

I just want to thank everyone for helping out on my Jeep. What really surprised me is even though we replaced both axles it still goes down the road straight - WOW. A few more little tweaks here and there plus a SYE and I'll be done. Well as done as anybody ever gets with their Jeeps.

Again, Thanks!

When I see her I'll try to convince her! :D

When/if I buy one day a house like yours I'll prefer to have a bigger garage, rather than a big living room... the garage would be my "primary" place! :wink:

And don't forget the heating/air conditioning, as if one stays for a long time there, it's good to enjoy a nice temperature, as in Mike's garage... :wink:

Once I find a place, we just need mike to bring all of his tools to my new house. 8O

I wish I had the money (and didn't return to Spain in one year... :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: )...

Living in a house like that must be sweeet, and having someone like you as a neighbour has no price! :wink: My wife would make me choose between "modifying the Jeep with the neighbour" and her... :lol: :lol:
