Default Anyone want to help?

I just got my Yank converter. I was wondering if anyone in the Florida/Ga border area wanted to give me a hand with the install. I'm about 35 miles fro jax fl. My location is St. Marys, Ga.

THANKS.
Malcolm

I'm flexible. If I can get some assistance, I'll work around their schedule/available time.

Next weekend might be good. Not sure if you have a place to do it, but if you want to drive up to Savannah. I have access to a shop with lifts and tools. Might need to pay the owner some for the lift time but it will be worth it not to have to do this job off of jack stands
This job can be done in a few hours so if you want to do it one day after work. I get off work around 5

I did mine with the car jacked 18" off the floor. A lift would have been awesome!

Default Awesome!

Aug. 1st weekend? That would work for me. How long would you esitmate it will take us to change it out? I have a local buddy that can probably go, so that would be another helping hand.

Next mod is a H/C...

Thanks,
Malcolm
