Has anyone decided or voted on a place? I think Ayala Park is cool LOTS of parking and good place to hang out and BBQ. Except when its AYSO soccer season. I missed legends and Im looking forward to this one.

Sounds good to me. Just tell me when and where, and I'll be there.

I wonder how crowded that park would be on a Sunday? I'll have to check it out.
Does the third Sunday August 21st sound good to everyone?

Menu: BBQ Ribs, Beans, Potato Salad & Bread.

I need to get back to Manimal, since he will be our food vendor that day.
We'll also need to know how many people (including sig nif others, brothers, sisters, kids, moms and dads etc.) will be attending so we can have enough food.

Sounds good to me. It shouldn't really matter if we show up early to reserve the space. we can check it out before hand and see where would be a good spot to set up for parking and close enough to shaded area to chill and eat.

Not much, welcome to the SoCal post

VDOG · 07-17-2011, 02:43 AM

So what is it about leaving a show that I have truck trouble right after.
The steel belt in my right front 2007 brand new tires with 800 miles on snapped inside the tire. Cost me 130.00 today to get a new one. Had not planned on buying tires until I change to bigger rims and tires.
Whats next?

JOHNORO · 07-17-2011, 02:21 PM

I am going to guess that this was the same tire
the fender landed on when you lost yhat ball joint

You mean when the spindle snap, yes thats the tire.
Its been since 2007 so even though im under the mileage, the year covearge has past. But the tire shop is sending it back to the company to see if they will adjust the price so I can get some money back.

huero · 07-18-2011, 10:51 PM

VDog your spindle cracked? Wow!

P.S. Guys I am working on getting a little cruise together with some friends down to Signal Hill. I let you all know when it will go down.

Huero.

Yes the spindle shaft snapped in half. Aint that crazy? Let us know when the meet happens, im down.

huero · 07-19-2011, 10:49 PM

VDog, I take it it was an aftermarket spindle? What spindle were you running?

No aftermarket, that was a stock 73 truck spindle. Still have not changed to a lowered spindle. Probably before the year is up I will change them to the lowered ones.

huero · 07-20-2011, 08:24 PM

Nothing wrong with stock spindles. I wonder what caused it to crack?

I think when I did the setup, I installed the bearing in reverse, or I did not have enough bearing grease and it got dry and cut into the spindle. I would have to go back and look at the piece to be sure. And to think, I was on the freeway going to and from the first Upland meet. Could have had a major accident on the freeway.
