I know what you mean. It would really be kewl to see a couple of rigs going at the same time! Kind of like an assembly line! Maybe we can do ours at the same time......LOL!

I'm in Puyallup. My wife would shoot me!
If y'all had started a few days later I'd be there. If your still needin' help Sunday I might be able to get up there.

Shane and Mike:
I've got to say, I'm thoroughly impressed at y'all's stamina! I can't believe y'all are still at it. And, I thought Rob and I were hard core hehe
Awesome work today. Get yourselves some rest soon, and get back to kickin' butt on it tomorrow
I'm signin' off for the night, I'll be tuning back in tomorrow, as soon as I get back from dumpin' all this old oil, brake fluid and antifreeze from Rob's SAS, and my previous maintence

I don't think the shackle tube is in place yet. I think he is cleaning up the hole and prepping the surface now. He just got the hole drilled. I had to leave the room for lunch but I didn't hear any welding sounds. The tube should be going in shortly...

Yep, I haven't measured yet but I think it's getting close to a foot of travel from relaxed to statis load. Time to get the bushings out and burn the tubes in!
