Possible Monthly install meets. Bay Area-Fremont

My second polisher (the MK3 15) just showed up.

Perhaps if @raytheeeagle helps, we can get his car done twice as fast.

 

I’ve got the harbor freight $10 spring compressors and have never had a problem with them. Used them on the Prius and my car before a dozen or so times. Perfect for the driveway job IMO

 

You gonna stop by?

Be good to swap stories again.

I’ve upgraded my ride since you last saw me.

 

Would be good to know a trick or two about headlight housing restore/protection too while you are at it LOL

 

Would be nice to meet up again, this time can hangout and chit chat instead of greet and run.

 

Trust me I’m always monitoring this thread but the dates never line up. Every first weekend of the month I have to work. Also coming from sac doesn’t help too much either. But I definitely want to attend

 

Also I’m out of town on the weekend of the 8th too. But I’ll be at one again... eventually. Maybe I’ll just host haha

 

I actually have a wall-mounted spring compressor at the shop, but we would have to take out your assemblies and drive across town to do the swap.

Sure, using impact tools does make the situation a bit more dangerous, but those portable spring compressors are an issue to begin with.

Sanding and spraying with clear seems to be the only long-term fix.

 

I've never seen those$10 compressors.

MacPherson Strut Spring Compressor Set

Looks like it’s 30$ now but I’m too cheap to pay that. May have got them on sale with another coupon stacked on it.

 

Count me in for an egr circuit and cooler cleanse.

 

I've a serpentine belt that needs replacing.

What I usually do is send a new conversation to those that sign up.

More to come soon if you want to join us.

 

I’m moving to California in two weeks if this is still happening I would be interested. I just changed the engine but have a lot more little things I would like to do.
