Pontiac Solstice Forum - Texas DDMWorks Mod Meet - solstice-forum.com

Texas DDMWorks Mod Meet ... Muenster, TX (North of DFW) ... set for April 3 - 5, 2009

NOTE: for the people wanting backbones Grin ... please let me know whether you want the Race (3/8") or the Street (1/4")

Date: April 3-4-5

Location : Carl's place in Muenster

6868 S. FM 373, Muenster, Texas 76252

* DDMWorks will post pricing and schedule for installs on another thread

* JPM Coachworks will be at the meet ... and Joe tells me he will have a SURPRISE for us ... special pricing for the meet will be posted +/- Wednesday 3/11/09

* Windrestrictor will also be in attendance at our meet .... so if you are thinking of purchasing any of their products now would be a GREAT time to do it and let the experts install it for you!! See below for SPECIAL PRICING on Windrestrictor products
We're offering 20% off on our products for all Meet attendees. (not a forum special but for those attending).
If we do get orders soon enough we can have them produced and ready to install at the meet on Saturday I'm thinking.

* We're thinking a Red River ride on Saturday morning around 9am would give all those attending (and not having their car worked on) an opportunity to make the big loop from the house up to the river, around through St. Jo to Forrestburg and back to the house. There will be a stop for wine tasting at Weinhoff on the route.

* Please post your arrival time in Muenster .... this will help DDM with establishing a schedule as well

* More info to come as we move along

Moms,

Lord willing, I'm having them install the GMPP suspension (won it on eBay Thursday for only $650) and do an alignment. I'm also planning to have the new supercharger pulley system (dedicated S/C belt and tensioner) installed.

You got a great price on that GMPP suspension!

I can only sit back and live vicariously through others until I am gainfully employed again - then .... *Watch Out!* ...

I felt _really_ good about that price. Could have had it for $400 six month's ago, but was saving for that whole supercharger thing.

I will renew and increase my prayers for your gainful and rapid employment.

That's a fantastic deal on the suspension.

How are you guys getting allignments done during the meet?

spicy3480 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 07, 2009, 04:12:29 PM »

From the experience at our mod meet on Long Island, the supercharger installs take some time, as will the suspenstion set-ups. Make sure you designate enough time for each. the lambo doors took a while also to get the alignment right. The door glass had to be adjusted on mine- passenger side...thanks to deepbluegxp. Make sure you guys have enough jackstands...I would say to have 8 handy, as well as rhino ramps. For the lowered cars, we had a jack that was really long and thin that fit underneath the lowered cars with no issues.

I have been talking to Dave and he told me that after the "high" from the LI mod meet is gone (and they catch their breath) he is going to look at the thread I have posted on the other forum (BBQ) and will come up with time frames ... costs etc ... this is probably going to happen in the next 2 - 3 weeks ..... we will be holding it at Carl's (carlintexas) place and here is his quote: "For mod facilities I will have 4 garage bays available plus driveway areas and the barn if needed. I will supply as many tools as possible to reduce the load for Dave & Randy to tote down here. If Dave can supply me with a list of needs I will assemble what I have & let him know."

Plus we have had a number of other people volunteer tools etc ..... I have touched base with Dave on alignments and they will bring the tools needed for that.
