Check out the jig Peter made, and used on 5 cars a couple of weeks ago. Pretty sweet:

Is this the jig that is slightly crooked, or the one that was mentioned might get redone?

This jig is 100% straight... I ended up tossing the crooked one.

I'll keep you guys updated!

Thanks Jstyer awesome!
@JRB, just let me know when you are finished up and I'll PM you my address.
@Scott, Do you want to do this together and knock out both cars?

I'm the next guy on the list, patiently waiting.....
Perhaps a Tri-state gathering at a RL'er garage with a lift ?

The jig is currently on its way to S2K993... It should be there today or tomorrow.

Well, I'm tucked away for the winter, or at least until all the salt is gone. Local shipping for you though!

Let me know when a jig is heading out west. I've been on one of those lists for a while.

I can arrange another RL "pin the tie rod on the Porsche" party in sourthern cal (Orange County) when I know when one is heading my way.

With enough time, I can hopefully get my bridgejack for my 4-poster so we can easily install them in my home garage.
