FJ Cruisers of Northern California

5th Official Install Day and Meet & Greet - August 16, 2009

hey gang, we're back to CA Annie and MoabFJ's pad for the 5th Official Install Day and Meet & Greet.

Date: Sunday, August 16, 2009
Time: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Location: 3065 Richmond Parkway, Richmond, CA - the green pointer is the entrance to the gate-secured lot where we will be hosting the social.
More information: The area used for the install day is a gate-secured parking lot and has a small picnic area. The lot can easily accommodate a little over 20 rigs. Bring your own food and beverage...your own tools would help too, but feel free to inquire about needed tools beforehand.

install days are a great way to seek that extra hand you need to get that bumper on or learn how to do simple installs yourself. these events are also meet & greets, so it's the perfect way to see what others have done to their FJCs and to meet members of the NorCal FJs.

if you have an item you'd like to install or need help with, please post up.

the 6th Official Install Day and Meet & Greet will be held in the Sacramento area this fall. date and location TBD.

Raising hand,
This is a big one for me. I have Light Racing UCA's, a Bandie mount, and.. well... I need to replace my toasted hawse fairlead and add a winch saver. I would have never thought I could screw up my winch without actually using it.

I have nothing to install, but will try to get there anyway. The last one was fun.

If I can make it, I will bring a jack, stands, a small welder and other tools. Let me know if I can bring anything else.

I'm planning to come. I don't have anything to install unless I order my suspension before then but I don't think its too likely right now. Either way we'll probably be there!

The timing of this couldn't be better for me! I'll be there and will need help installing my icon lift. I'll also be ceremoniously tearing off the stock bling plate.
