Moi?

I meant we can borrow Kurt's tools to fix it. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Instead of someone who knew what he was doing, I showed up at Pete's last night. Therefore, it took us only four hours to get the old tie rods off.

Dan, you should have let Kurt do it.

Dan was a great help last night and he (and anyone else who would like to join) will be a great help tonight as well.

I was a little concerned when we were "tapping" the tie rods out of the spindles, I saw a lot of rust from the front pan falling onto the gound, my hope is that none of it was load bearing rust.

Dan assures me that installation is much easier.

I can have food and beverages for all and there may be 944 turbo part door prizes.

Ha ha. It turned out to be standing on the tub installing blinds. More freaking blinds.

Folks,

Let me know if you are free tonight or this weekend, I know there is a tech session so most are probably committed to that or various "honey do" projects.

Is the installation of the tie rods a one man job?

Directions for those inclined:

66 West to route 29 exit

turn left at second light New Linton Hall Road

go through two lights take second right on Glenkirk

take first right into Broad Run Oaks on Sterling Point

First left on Tenbrook

First right on Paper Birch

fourth house on right 12012 blue 911 pointed skyward

Thanks,

Pete
