We will be open this Thursday. Bring on by your Off Road or tool Christmas toy! Because it is cooler and dark early some of the guys will be coming over early, like 2 pm to work on their vehicles while it is still light and warmer. I know Rudi needs a new lower radiator hose and will most likely need a new Power Steering pump if the leak he has is not hose related. Rudi wants to go on the Anza Boreggo trip so we'll need to give it a good look over. What else is going on?  See you then, Fred |

WOW! A lot of work was done this Thursday. I can't remember when we did so much to so many vehicles. I lost track of all that was going on. Maybe some of you can list what you did this evening. One vehicle I spent some time on was Rudi's Cherokee. We replaced the power steering unit, A leaking "O" ring on the oil filter, diagnosed a missing problem and replaced the Throttle Body Sensor, changed the oil and filter. Replaced the lower radiator hose. Then when we were finished we discovered the water pump was beginning to leak so we put this off until next Thursday. Ryan put wax job on the GRAND. Greg replaced the upper radiator hose and serviced his badly corrode battery cables. Murrie, changed his oil and filter and did a front end lube job. Matt changed his oil and started installing some cool HID road lamp on his front bumper. What else........I can't remember. Here is what it looked like front the top of Rudi's Cherokee while they were trying to get the oil filter adapter back on:  Here is what it looked like below:  Father and son working together:  Greg and Jack with their Durango are a real regular Thursday night:  Success on Rudi's Cherokee:  Pizza for all!  Thanks, Fred |

Caleb comes to eat and play computer games. I guess he also plays with Oreo sometimes too.
Sorry about no pictures of your hack, I mean custom gill work. I can only take so many pictures while helping others find tools.
Thanks,
Fred

Here is some of Ryan's work in the daylight.......nice job!   On another note, here is some of my work area outside the shop.......not so nice of a job!  Each of those spots is an oil stain waiting for some dirt! Looks like I need to spend some time with the power washer! Thanks, Fred |
