Default SoCal MM/OPG/Suspension Clinic 6/23

Jonathan (RL: Kelanel) will have his car here in Glendale on Saturday (6/23) for new motor mounts and pan gasket, plus he has new Koni's and Eibach's to go in at the same time. The installation will be followed by a test drive (Angeles Crest Highway is just up the hill a snick...) to settle the new suspension, and that should lead us back here for an alignment clinic.

Any and all are welcome to visit, help, coach, learn, consume, hang out, banter, etc, as we work our way through his project list I have a lift, power tools, a couple sets of instructions, parts and pieces, fluids, and a change of clothes for when we are done. And this is hardly the first of these projects here so we should be getting pretty good at it.

We will be working in my garage on the hill here in Glendale, at approximately the 134 freeway and the 2 freeway. This is about 8 crow-flies miles due north of downtown Los Angeles.

The fun will start at around 8am. NA Beverages (more/adult if you bring them...) and snacks will be available, and we'll probably throw something interesting on the grill for lunch. Nobody goes home hungry or thirsty unless they choose to.


RSVP here for a body count. Send a PM with e-mail address for local directions/access info. Weather threatens to be pretty glorious on Saturday, by the way. Should be a fun adventure! Join us if you can, even if it's just for part of the project.

What a sweet idea! Sounds like a a fun and educational day to boot. Wish I could cross the Rockies to be there - but my mother-in-law is in town so I'm stuck. Best of luck Bob and Johnathan.

Darn, I will be OOT this weekend. I really need to learn this operation.

Kudos to Dr. Bob for hosting these clinics. Thank you.

A: Leave now and you can be here in time.

B: Come anyway. Easier to beg forgiveness later.

C: All your friends are doing it.


Did I miss anybody?
