I am going to be grabbing the Terraflex 2.5" BB with shock extension for my '10 Rubi soon and I will need help putting it in. I blew out my MCL in my left knee last week and I am weeks away from being 100% but I plan to get the lift in next week or two and want to get it in. I'll be able to help but figure with folks who know the drill it will go much smoother/faster and I will hopefully be less likely to reinjure my knee. Since I am a newbie to the group and to sweeten the deal I am offering a ride in my Yak-52 warbird to anybody who can help, as soon as I am back to flying status (~3-4 weeks). Could be sightseeing, formation with my buddies or aerobatics, your choice. Sightseeing along the beach by IB Aerobatics Formation We can do the installation at my hangar at Gillespie or at an equipped garage/shop, whatever works for whoever can help. Reply via PM or here. Thanks in advance! JK

John, Welcome to the forum and to SDJC. I am sure Chappie and I can help you out. We appreciate the offer of a flight but it is not a requirement as we help all of our members. I am also sure if the offer of a flight was there sometime after the build that we would take you up on it. if you can let us know when your lift will be here we will do all possible to fit you in. This is a very busy time a year for the club so patience on setting a date may be required. Thank you

We do most of our work out of Chappys Garage in the east county. However if your hanger is fully equipped with tools and jacks im sure we could do it there as well.

I am guessing Chappy's garage to be the better choice, no lift at the YakCave. Once I have the lift in-hand we can work on scheduling. Thanks!! JK

Brown Santa dropped off my goodies box from Teraflex by way of Kolak Performance yesterday, ready when you guys are.
Thanks for the help, look forward to meeting you and getting to wheel with you.

I'll get pics posted up but wanted to say a big thank you to Chappy and his son Dominic, Joe and Carlos for their help getting the Teraflex 2.5" lift installed yesterday. The Rubicon looks so much better, ride is nice, stance is corrected and it is ready for bigger shoes and many adventures with the club.
What a great introduction to such a good group of guys.
Thanks again.
JK
