D.I.Y Day at Auto Shop 03/06
What: I'm offering to bring in 2 vehicles into the Auto Shop on MacDill AFB:
3 stalls w/ wheels free lifts ($4 p/hr)
3 stalls w/ non-wheels free liftsthe day of the monthly meet. ($4 p/hr)
7 lift-free stalls ($2 p/hr)
1 A/C refill stall
1 4 wheel Alignment stall (M-F, 1:30 or 2:30 appt only)
Paint Booth
Machining Section (resurfacing, presses, grinders, welder)
All stalls carry full compliment of air & hand tools.
2-3 ASE technicians are on-station to assist.
When: March 06, 0900-1800
Where: Meet at McDonalds on corner of Dale Mabry and Interbay Blvd at 0900
Who: Mr. Mandigo has already confirmed to meet to change out rotors and pads.
Granted, some jobs require professional tools, some don't. I will choose which cars come in at my discretion. Cars with tougher jobs have priority (engine/tranny/diff swaps, brake swaps, engine mods, etc).
Why: So you learn how to DIY. That money for labor can be spent on more important things in life.
Let me know what you want to do, then I'll PM you my cell # so we solidify plans.
*** All cars are subject to be stripped of stupid stickers, body kits, and spoilers.

I'd go. I need to evacuate and refill my AC, and track down an idle problem. Also welding a wastegate dump into my downpipe (friend is bringing a welder up this weekend), and finding a power steering leak. For that, I don't know what they'd have that would help finding leaks.
0900.. I'd need to set a few alarms for that, though.

Of course oil changes are allowed - it's an auto shop.
