    Spring/Rod Install at Jons

    Well after talking to Jon he is being generous enough to let me come to his Shop to do the spring/rod install, seeing as how I dont have the tools or the help to do it down here.

    Who would all be down to help me or just come hang out? Who will be available Friday or saturday of next week?

    Jeff, ricky, kurt, SC...?

    Depends on how good you are with a spring compressor.

    David, ever use the word "push"....? It will take longer than you've scheduled to replace the rods.

    LOL
