RRG fix it/help out thread.

[PandaSelecta]

Just thought we should have a thread to list people who are willing to help out with other peoples cars at the Gathering (for any problems that would stop you from getting home again)...

1: pandaselecta - spanners, wheel wrench, sockets.

3.BC - Axle stands and Jack, Full compliment of tools (40Kgs) plus usual fluids - I don't travel light and it's still packed up from Le Mans

[DutyFreeSaviour]

I'll also be tooled up (not as heavily!) - axle stands and jack too. even spare 5X114.3 alloys as the new ones have arrived (WOOOT!)
1200 / 1500 wet n dry - clay bar, hand glaze, primer and other assorted bodywork gubbins too for some reason

[dollywobbler]

I'll be packing a fair bit - mainly in a bid to drop the ride height without having to use tools! I'll make sure I have that essential, gaffer tape...

[Speedman]

...and cables ties and WD40

"if its too tight and shouldn't be...WD40, if its too loose and shouldn't be...cable ties and gaffa tape" ;D

[stealthstylz]

Maybe the use of a spare wheel and/or tyre weld would be good too, especially if you're running a weird stud pattern wheel.

I qualify for the weird stud pattern, 4x110mm. Should anyone need a spare using this PCD then I am your man

[Pandamonium]

I'll have a couple of cans of tyre weld in my stash, along with my russian toolkit. I'll also have a small amount of fuel hose 7.9mm.

[pbottomley]

I can stand and point at ppl whilst they attempt to fix things and suck air through me teeth? ;D

"OHHH You didnt wana do it like that "
