Sorry to hear that.

So what is the updated list for people who are showing up?

Also does anyone else have a ball joint press?

 

Chris, you can get the ball joint press from the Irish of O'reilly auto. I did mine Spring 2011 with their tools and didn't have a problem. Better yet, I'll pick it up, they sometimes don't include the right parts and you really have to know what to look for.

 

You know I haven't seen an update on motorbug in a while. I thought I was subscribed. Any news on Chris? Wont be the same without him picking on his fiddle.

Also nice you are coming too Razzi. Been trying to get you back out there since you hooked me on it.

 

I will hopefully making in out there on Saturday morning. I have a ball joint press and the adaptor kit. I believe Christof has one as well. I am planning to bring my trans jack again this time and some SS tubing to help with Mark's Hutch & Harpoon mods. Is there anything else special that needs to brought. I usually try to work up a list so I don't forget anything.

 

Excellent news!!!

It wouldn't be a tech day without you Roland'

 

I don't have a count right now. I will try to run back through all threads and see what the count is.

 

Count is 12, maybe 13 for this gathering. Hopefully everyone enjoys the weekend.

 

Roland, I'm sending the tools to replace the wear ring on Mark's damper with Woody. It is in a kit that includes the damper puller stuff.

 

Does Mark have a new wear ring? I haven't talked to him lately. Do you have the damper installer? I have a Snap On bolt puller set and MAC damper installer set. I heated the wear, to expand it, when I did one on International 530E.

 

I need to research the part number, but Timken makes a kit that comes with the wear ring and front main seal.

Very easy to do with Nicmike's tools....

 

Looks like a lot of wrenches will be turned this time. Hopefully, we will get to see the Txtinct Excursion and Motorbug. I know that Motorbug will be there. We will all get to see Chris's work first hand.

 

I'm still trying to make it guys. I may pull the X down with the new RV. Hope I can make the turn into your place Ted... You like?

I should have jumped in on this earlier...

I won't be coming, but I do have some parts that were never installed on my old 7.3 that I sold in February.

I know I have the following:

RiffRaff FRx (new)
RiffRaff HPx (new)
80% complete Mechanics o-ring kit
Complete Fuel Bowl Seal kit
Stock Turbo off an '02 (has 150k miles on it and could probably use a rebuild)

I think there are some other things, but just thought I'd throw these things out there. If any of you guys need these things shoot me a PM. I have already talked to Roland and will be able to get parts there through him assuming he still makes the trip.

You can make the turn. Just don't turn short like someone else did. Oh did I say that. All kidding aside, I have another gate you can enter through if you don't think you can make the main one.

 

Ted, can you text me your address at 512-925-9171 or PM please? I think I remember how to get there but just want to make sure
