DIY Day 14th of August.

[Astron_Boy]

Has anyonoe got a ute that can help me collect the keg early in the morning? It'll be in a wheelie bin with ice & a CO2 bottle rigged up

I'm driving the station wagon.
Can get there early give you a hand if you want...

Just put some straps over the lid of the bin so the ice doesn't spill out and it'll fit in back...

[AJ]

Does any one else think that this list is a little long? Ben, are you going to put it in to a can do/can't do pile?

Another thing. Food. Do we need to bring it with us or just some money to chip in for the BBQ?
How much is the kegger each?

[aza013]

I will be getting some meat, snags, stakes and bacon if others want to get some other things like rolls and rabbit food

[Kustom]

Best to keep the lists big, we thought our lists where big but we ran out of things to do on the first day?

[aza013]

You need to come to one of our diy days, we don't run out of things to do we run out of sun light lol.

[AJ]

Cool. Will do.

[Kustom]

You need to come to one of our diy days, we don't run out of things to do we run out of sun light lol.

Yeah well I had things to do on my car, but I wouldn't really say they were sutiable for diy day, like wiring and sh*t, its kindof a one man job... Even with 2 people you just run into each other / get in each others way.. sucks because its such a time consuming and freaking fiddly job.

... If I planned earlier I would be down next weekend. But.... I didn't.... and I may have just used up all/almost all of my leave

[Astron_Boy]

Some of that list in nion impossible.
Hope people won' be disappointed when a 'no' is given
Some stuff is easy. Getting drunk is in the easy list.

By the way. BACON!!!!!!
Fkn awesome!




As a small request Az, can you ensure some form of chicken.

Will chuck some money your way.

[aza013]

Chicken snags no worries

[Bennoz]

Ben, are you going to put it in to a can do/can't do pile?

This is the list of things I'll be doing. Keep in mind I'll be able to help out with your other bits & pieces, but this will be my main mechanical priorities:

2. FTO_GPvR- Short Shifter to be installed
4. Tippin - Samco power steering hose
6. eddiii - Window rattle
9. Rock_it - Adjust tappets
11. zuihoujueding - window rattle, front droplinks - How many & which engine mounts are we talking about?
12. FTO-Boy - Spark plugs, Change auto tranny oil, change suspension spring, droplinks, replace front brakes - I know you want to do swaybar as well, but thats super time consuming without a hoist. Is the existing one broken or you just upgrading?
13. Gholdwayne - Adjust tappets

Im also thinking, for those of you that have tappets, depending on how we go for time, I might just have to do the front bank (the easy to get to bank) and show you how its done, so you can do the rear bank at another time. Otherwise I'll be getting bogged down taking off intake manifold after intake manifold.
