Mod Day
 
With this being such a tight-knit group, I figured I would toss this idea out there. On another forum I was on, sometimes we would get together for a Mod Day, basically anyone that had any mods they wanted to do, would just come out and everyone would show up, lend a hand, be helpful where possible and get to know each other and the cars. I don't have to explain further the obvious benefits but, just tossing the idea out there to see if you all like the idea.

03MachMe 07-15-2013 03:36 PM

If this idea gains any forward momentum, then you can have a Blue Moon on me.

Feel free to pm me some instructions to where you guys will be at. I'll bring my springs and stuff along with some beers and help out.

03MachMe 07-15-2013 04:47 PM

BlueBolt 07-15-2013 11:41 PM

Austin and I talked about getting together this weekend and installing my MGW and a new h pipe. Ill have to see what my weekend looks like though.

03MachMe 07-15-2013 11:56 PM

I have most tools and a full size jack at my house and like I said all are welcome. Not sure what time Sunday but we will be doing josh's shocks and my panhard bar at the least

El_Tortuga 07-17-2013 02:38 PM

Mustang is caught up, but I'll be working on the wife's RAV4. Bought her air horns to taunt the neighborhood squirrels. I'm sure she or I will never use it in traffic or on unsuspecting pedestrians. ;)

Mrjeremyt 07-17-2013 08:55 PM

I do most all mods at my shop... I would offer it up but due to insurance reasons and such I'm sure the boss man would flip out if a bunch of stangs showed up just for fun. lol Maybe one at a time or something. I'm always up to help, but you know I've been spoiled with wall mounted spring compressors and pneumatic tools :p

JDBishopArts 07-18-2013 11:15 AM

Looks like we will be working on the cars at Ryans house starting at 9am on Sunday. Who all is going to make it?

Dominic Toretto 07-18-2013 11:26 AM

Grandpa 07-18-2013 11:54 AM

It's kind of a far drive, but I might be able to make it.

BLK2012GT 07-18-2013 12:43 PM

Midnight11 07-22-2013 11:18 AM

He has the base tune final tune is Tuesday I believe

GunsUp 07-22-2013 12:55 PM

Ryan - How long was the TVS install? Great work man

JDBishopArts 07-22-2013 04:28 PM

Took us right at 12 hours to do the suspension and the entire TVS install and initial fire up. The wiring for the VMP plug and play kit was a bit confusing at first but I think that was because I was over thinking it. Got it figured out pretty quick. Hardest part was grinding the engine cover.

I feel like if we did it again we could get it done in about 8-10 hours.

JDBishopArts 07-22-2013 04:51 PM

Photo after install.

Yea wasn't as bad as I was thinking. My back is killing me but was a good time.

JDBishopArts 07-22-2013 05:01 PM

Yeah dude. I don't know why I thought wearing sandals was a good idea. My feet are still on fire.

DirtyD 07-22-2013 05:18 PM

Wearing sandals to install car parts. Lol

This isn't Dubai.

Sorry to bring this old thread back up but didn't want to start a new thread. I am picking up some damn near brand new gt500 axle backs on Sunday. I used to have a pair of ramps for installing exhaust stuff but sold them whenever I got rid of my 13 5.0. Does anyone have a set of ramps I could borrow to install my gt500s? I really don't feel like buying new ones. Haha.

I have a set of ramps you can use. Can't remember where you're from, but I'm in Fort Worth/Arlington.

maxpayne 09-06-2013 12:04 PM

Thanks! I live about 5 miles north of downtown Dallas. But, I will totally drive over to FW/Arlington. I will pm you shortly.
