cool, I was going to get these from my buddy but he might be using them. basically I need a better jack lol, mine will work but I don't have one of those heavy duty ones. and a 1/2'' wrench set would be sweet, don't know if my 3/8'' set will be good enough. I think vince will be bringing a breaker bar and most of the wiring stuff I need and long has the impact gun. CL rules

sounds good man, I'll PM everyone soon.

tentatively it will be at my house this Saturday around 1 or 2pm. I have no clue on how long the install will take but with this manpower it shouldn't be too bad.

Thanks guys

Long's 3/8th snap on tools would probably be able to do the trick, but i'm sure he has 1/2 inch too haha.

I actually don't have a 1/2" Snap On set since it isn't practical. The Snap On 1/2" ratchets are practically the same size as a breaker bar. The only way I'd be able to use a 1/2" set under a car is if I get a lift installed at my house.

I wish. My current garage isn't built for it, so there would be clearance issues when lifting the car into the air. One of my neighbors had to have a brand new garage built, so he could put in lifts to park 1 car under the other.
