You can bring the compressor if you want that way we can use more than one tool at a time. If you do that then bring a hose, your impact and w/e else you want.. I guess wrenches?

i guess it hasn't been 100% clearly stated in the thread yet.. that i know of.

he's coming in to get my RCD brackets put on, some of the brackets Jacob is making and a set of coil overs.. He used to have the B bars on the truck, the #1 bars are comin off the truck once he gets here.

the b-bars are just hanging out, they might be a little wore out though, and like matt said the #1's are coming off at the meet. They are in good shape, got them from highroller and have only about 7,000 miles on them from me. They don't sag even with my heavy piles of crap up front.

the more air compressors the better

I wish my fuel cost for 550 miles was only 80 bucks haha, maybe in 1998.

It will be 80 just for the 320 mile trip

a ghettofantabular one! Im just saying, If we have 2 impacts but not 2 wrenches to put on the back of the bolts then its useless having 2 impacts.

i want to bring my box home instead of throwing all my tools in a bag.
