My schedule looks clear, I will have to double check with the wifey though.
Things that I need to do are:
Re hook up my isolator for my fuel pressure gauge, if I can fix the leak first. I also need to change my trans fluid, anyone know how many qts are needed to do the flush? I have two cases of Schaffer's = 24 qts.
My truck will only fit into a garage with 8' high doors, so if it doesn't fit I can give moral support on other trucks, if needed.

I cannot answer the garage door question but 24 quarts of ATF will be good. I cannot remember the stock quantity. 16 or so maybe?
Edit: If it turns out you cannot get your truck in you can always drive as far as my place and ride with me also.

Ok I went and measured the doors and one measures 95" with the door openend all the way. The other door measures 91" with the door all the way open. I know my stock height truck fits in the shorter door no problem. Jason's truck should be ok in the taller door. What is the worst we let a little air out of the tires to get it in! Once inside the shop there is plenty of room, just got shorter doors on the building. The building is layed out kinda weird but you will understand once you see it. But it is heated!

Sounds good Jay! I am thinking we should maybe get a list going of what all everybody wants to get done that day. Also if somebody is going to need any special tools for anything let me know so I can see if I have them. Myself I would like to replace my shocks and steering stabalizer.

Hello Chris. Any and all are welcome to join the get together. Vehicle work or just sitting around and BS'ing. Details kind of start at about post #49 I believe. If you want to join let us know. You can drive seperate or bum a ride from one of us. Tom is from NE Mpls, Dale is in Robbinsdale and I am in Maple Grove. Those are the for sure attendees from the Cities so far. I think Jason will be coming from Farmington and maybe Lee from Spring Lake Park. Shoot, I am sure i am missing one right now. Of course Troy is hosting so I am pretty sure he will be there. haha
Edit: I also think Mike (allis327) will be there from Melrose.
