Oooh! I though of what I might need!

One of my brake bleeder screws is stuck and starting to get rounded off. Who wants to try to remove it? My right rear brake hasn't been bled since... umm... one of Pete's pulley parties down in Worcester. hmmm....

Black Cooper I'll be there already

Looking forward to hoisting the Pulley Party Jmac
There is plenty of Mini parking, and room for working, watching, sitting and thinking or just sitt'in, on the deck undercover.
The coffee and donuts will be on early.
Adam, I will need a time slot for a pulley for my black mini.
thx.

front camber plate installation will be no problem, just confirm so we can bring the proper tools. PLEASE, be sure to have an alignment arranged immediately afterwards.

I'm not sure who you're talking to, but I know from experience that putting camber plates on an older car can take forever if bolts are rusted. A new car should be no problem, though.

If you're interested, just reply to this thread. If you want one of the specially-priced SC pulleys, send a PM to NHRef.

So far, 4 of the 5 Alta pulley's I ordered are taken: Peter Longshaw (sp?), Dave Thibodeau, John Macdonald and Richard Frierman (sp?)
