I'm reposting this and hoping for a few more replies:
It looks like the day to lift will likely be Wednesday, Feb 1 on Ft Detrick in Frederick. The auto shop will be open 9-7. I'd like to start as early as possible so we have time to work around complications.

I'm looking at front and rear springs, four shocks, sway bar links, brake line relocation, bumpstops, and maybe a tie rod and TC drop.

3" coils up front, 3.5" RE springs in back with JK Rubi shocks and maybe a V8 ZJ tie rod.

I'll be out of the area for the rest of this month. Would anyone be available Feb 1 or 2 to help?
Man I am working that wed and thurs that week on dayshift, or i would be there.

Hey clown you know i got your back, If I am off I am more than happy to come help out.
Only problem is, where I am working, they dont put out the schedule until tuesdays, for the upcoming week. So I wont know if I can help out til the day before.

shirey, It'll be at the Auto Skills Center on Fort Detrick in Frederick. I've never done anything like this, so I'd be happy just to have a few extra hands. If one or two experienced people can make it as well, then I'll be much more confident.

Doc, I understand that. I didn't know I was coming home from Delaware yesterday until I woke up that morning. Then I found out at noon I'm going back tomorrow morning. I woke up today and got a text on my work phone saying I work night shift tomorrow. They don't plan very well.

Lazy, good-for-nothing..
Nah, I figured I wouldn't get much help on a Wednesday morning/afternoon. I'm in the army, though, and I'm out-of-state most of this month. I get back sometime around the 30th/31st, I have Feb 1 off, and then I start leave on Feb 2 cause I'm going home for my buddy's wedding.
I wanna get this on so I can show it off when I get home, but my schedule makes it difficult. It's looking better than I expected, though.

Thanks, man. Base is public access. You just have to go through the right gate, but they have signs leading the way.

If anyone has questions, my number is (216) 903-1859. Send a text with your name and CF username so I know who I'm talking to, and I'll help with whatever I can.
