    Yes we have some spare gaskets, bolts, etc.

    Yes building # is 1040.

    If anyone is reserving a lift please let us know. We would like to keep this as organized as possible.

    Thanks

    I normally take the short route, but if we're going to have a bunch of cars together, I think that the highway would make it easier to stay together (if we care). Otherwise its guaranteed that someone in the middle of the line will get caught at a light.

    Good point. I think the highway would work out best. We can nail down what route we take the morning of


    I will be bringing 4 jack stands and a floor jack with me.

    Asked that same question offline - the answer was no - you just get the hose (again?), so bring your own tools. :|

    If there are no reservations, are lifts off-limits the day of? Or if a couple folks decide while there to split some lift time or something, can we jump on one pending availability?

    There are apparently some liability issues with renting lift time. We are working with All Pro regarding this situation and should get back tomorrow with further information.

    sorry for any inconvenience.

    The opportunity to use the lift is still there....but
    due to the our liabilities and the advise of the company's lawyer, we can not rent the lift to members to perform thier own work.
    Brandon however can and is willing to do the work with the assistance of the member.

    So if any member is interested please pm by April 6th to reserve a time. Also please let us know what kind of work needs to be done.

    Thanks.

    I wouldn't imagine there being any kind of liability issues if a waiver was signed, I thought thats how things were going to work out in the first place.

    Doesn't matter to me since I don't need a lift though.

    What kind of labor rate is everyone looking at for Brandon that day?

    Labor rate (with the assistance of renter) is included in the lift rental of $20.00/hr.

    Can I rent a lift for an hour so I can get Brandons assistance with some gauge problems? haha.

    I might do that if there is downtime on the lifts - however I won't eat up a bay if there is someone else who needs one

    In an effort to share the benefit of said lift to everyone you may want to limit exactly what people can do in their hour or two...

    Swaybar? Yes! :)
    Full blown 2.5L engine swap? No! :(

    That sound feasible to everyone? :)

    It'd be a great help if they're trying to do suspension as well.

    unless you want to use jackstands you will need a lift. and yes, take out your backseat beforehand and you will use less lift time.


    ....you can even take off your tires before you get on the lift! hahahahaha

    ^^ I totally would if I thought they'd actually enjoy themselves. I don't think they're very interested in the cars or meeting a bunch of new people since they don't speak English haha.

    Don't worry, there will be mentally stable armed white boys who will protect you till the proper authorities show up. It is in Forsyth County right?

    Too bad there won't be any Volvos present to make 'em feel like home.
