We are going to be leaving Vacaville at 6:00, was planning on taking 680, but if anyone is hooking up to wagon train it down there, I'm game...

Looks like my project is gonna be a little bit smaller tomorrow. Haven't received the bushings from Energy yet, oh well, more time for

I am picking up the tie rods tonight, maybe we can get those done

Hey guys, I'm not going to be able to leave till 6 or 7 pm. Its a 6 or 7 hour drive from Norco. If you see me in the drive in the morning wake me up. Can't see getten a room for couple hours, will do saturday night. Wife had to help babysit my sons twins and isn't home yet. Also in LA traffic I would sit for three hours just to get out of town. Would like to go to breakfast if so one is leaving from there. I didn't plan it this way just happened. God Bless, Chet

Thanks anyway Chet... Clay should have my sway bar bushings, he just didn't have the leafs and track bar in stock.

We will be loading up tonight so if anyone needs a certain tool, hit us up. We have quite a bit of stuff around here, just ask, we might have what you need.

Chris - I can go out 4 to 680, much smoother than the moonscape of 880 anyhow, and with a little luck we can make that wagon train. I'll PM ya my cell #; give me a holler when you are going past Concord or so. Slow guy catches up. Anybody else?

I'm going to be there shortly... Chet if you see this on the road I can't really leave the gate open all night 'cause the old dog will wander off, and I can't leave her inside 'cause she's an olllllld dog and leaks a lil bit...

But. It's on the corner of Kalana and Manfre Rd and I'll see you in the early am... I might still be up when you get here. Maybe Rhino and I will be killin' Zombies on Call of Duty on the Xbox or something.

I just wanted to thank all of you that helped me out so much. I could not have done what you accomplished. I also wanted to thank Andy for the use of "The Compound". The BBQ was great. It was a great time. I hope that Peter got everything done at a reasonable hour. I left at 8:00pm and you guys were still working hard.
Thanks again, and I hope to do it again soon.
