Michael,
Sounds fine as long as the very rear of the car is a bit higher (i.e. the
front wheels are lower than the 4x4 twin towers). If not, we will figure
it out....as long as Curt shows!
See you Saturday.

Darrin-
I believe the car is high enough to slide the power train from under it,
but I'm not sure. The front is on drive-up ramps and the rear is resting
on approximately 20" piers I made by stacking pieces of pressure treated
4x4s in alternating pairs (kind of hard to explain). Anyway, the car is
about 20" off the ground at the jack points (just forward of rear wheel
wells). I do have a pair of jack stands too but I wasn't too confident in
their reliability.
Do you know if 20" from the ground to the jack points is enough clearance?
If not, I can add to my piers.
-Mike

Michael,
Finally, a tech session consisting of something I have done before...and
recently. Should be no problem at all. Always good to have a Finch cart
to roll the powertrain around on, but with more than four adults, we
should be able to place it wherever you like.
Is the rear of the car on jack stands at sufficient height?

Darrin/ Everyone-
I can't speak for the availability of the tool you're looking for but to
say I don't have it. I can answer the question about the project for this
meeting. If possible, I'd like to drop the power train out of my '61
coupe. I'm rather proud to say that I took care of all the preparation
for that job this past weekend. I used a very descriptive power train
removal instruction pamphlet that I purchased from Clark's and I believe
all that needs to be done is removing the 3 mounting bolts and lowering
the power train.
I'll have 2 or 3 scissor jacks along with my floor jack and a sturdy
wooden board to lower the thing. I'm open for suggestions on any other
tools needed.
The ride out to Rockville is a little longer than usual. I'll try to
reward those who make it with some good refreshments. See you Saturday
morning. Thanks.

Hello all,
Does anybody who will come to the meeting on Saturday own this tool?
I noted the recent discussion on VV and should also note that my sad
attempt at oiling the old bearing seems to be having little effect. I
want to try this approach if there is a loaner tool out there. Could even
do this at the meeting, as, suprisingly, I will be driving a Corvair to
attend, sketchy bearing and all.
See you all on Sat.
BTW, what is the project for this meeting? Any tools I can bring?
Darrin
