FJ Cruisers of Northern California

3rd Official Install/Wrenching and MEET & GREET Day! Sat Feb 21, Richmond, CA

We'll be there by 9am, unless someone wants us there sooner. We'll try to have it wrapped up by 4pm.

If I can get someone :) to bring a grill again, I'll bring some chicken and a grill-able veg. We'll take care of soft drinks, water and beer. Otherwise if you can bring something snacky that'd be great. Bring DVD's if you have kiddo's, they can hang out in the conference room.

3065 Richmond Parkway, park in the back. PM me if you'd need my cell.

Looking forward to it! - Ann & Mark

Thanks again Annie/Mark for hosting the meet and the good food/beer. Sorry about the short antenna, I only managed to make 3, and the guys (C4B, Steve & the Boss) parked next me to got them. I'm making another batch, PM me and will ship one to you.

I did not install anything but show my electronics upgrades and sharing my spare parts (fuse/bolts) but had a good time. It's nice to meet your partner, our friends and new faces..

C4B - rear shocks (also helped with taking mats FJ apart)
Mark / Annie - Baja Rack
Cypllk - Stock FJ Rack (from Mark) & helped take apart Matt's truck
Pkelly - I think he got a new front bumper (allpro)

Thanks for getting this together Ann and Mark, had a great time, got the food cooked thanks to Vince bringing an extra grill, worked out great. It was nice to put a few new faces to names I've seen on both forums.

I really didn't have anything to install myself (well except for beer into my liquid grain storage facility) but it was fun helping where I could.

Hey thanks to everyone for the great welcome of a newbie, special thanks to Ann & Mark.

It was nice to finally meet all of you, and hope to see you on a trail run or a meet & greet.

Had no install of my own, I did help pkelly with his allpro bumper some and loaned out a couple of tools.

Had an awesome time thanks again !!

Thank you to Anne and Mark for hosting this event. I did not have an install to do, but I enjoyed meeting everyone and found a few really good ideas to persue for my FJ.

Thanks again and see you on the trails.
