Not that much. Spent time on the Z from about 3-5 this afternoon. Then mowed the yard and did some laundry to get ready for date. Just got back. Very sweet girl. And pretty. We just have nothing in common...

Arc combo tank purchased. Should be here by the middle of next week. I can't wait to get it and let it sit in my garage for years!!

Yes. In fact I’m running a Z one cut it’s two pieces and the Infiniti is one piece. Makes it easier for me to check vacuum lines and such.

Rusty · 09-22-2018, 12:44 AM

Well........JL showed up about 7:30. Fed him burgers and corn on the cob.

After we got done eating. We started to bust azz and spin wrenches about 8pm. JL did most of the wrenching with me giving directions. Got the diff out. Checked backlash. His was almost .003". Checked ring and pinion tooth pattern. It was good too. Cleaned the inside of the diff. Installed the new Z1 diff cover. The diff is ready to go back in. We called it a night at midnight. Got a lot done in 4 hours.

Rusty · 09-22-2018, 12:52 AM

On a side note. Before JL showed up. I finished cutting grass. I put the mower away in the metal shed. Which has a 5ft tall door. I'm 6'2". As I ducked down to walk through. I hit my head. Dropped me to my knees.

Put my hand on top of my head. Had blood everywhere. Go into the house and call for the wifey. She looked and said that I looked like I was scalped by indians. I got a good size piece of skin missing.

And my head still hurts. I was hoping that I didn't have to go to the hospital before JL came.

jchammond · 09-22-2018, 06:25 AM

Take care of that “Noggin”...you only have to do those kinda things once & learn from it very quick; Hope your heads better.
Have fun today wrenching on the Z / as I know you’ll do everything 1st Class!

jchammond · 09-22-2018, 06:29 AM

Supposed to be off this weekend (lmao),but I’m on call...we’ll see how this works out.
Going over to Dads this morning & doing a couple oil changes for him,,,weather supposed to be good.

JARblue · 09-22-2018, 07:03 AM

Hope the head is feeling better today, Rusty

Everyone enjoy your Saturday!! Nasty rainy here

Visiting Rusty was the right call. Excellent hospitality, and professional guidance through what would've been a very much more time consuming process for me alone. A++, would recommend Russ's Z Service Station to a friend.

Plus his wife made us dessert :yum.
Will update further after coffee and progress.

And yes, it's Raining again!!!!

Rusty · 09-22-2018, 08:27 AM

We're up. Made omelets for breakfast.

Head still hurts. Along with my jaw. Hard time sleeping last night. Couldn't find a spot on the pillow without laying on the bad spot.

Getting ready to start again on JL's Z. Time to remove the old diff bushing.
