Arrow Dragon Tech Morning, Friday 7:30am

I will be in my usual techday spot in front of the Wildwood grill at 7:30am, Friday morning. We plan to wrap up fast, around 8:45-9am so we can get out and drive!!!

Myself and other wrenchers will be performing some free services like axle nut TSB/retorque, clutch adjustments (one time adjustment for life), diagnostics, test drives, etc, so stop by for a free go-over of your car and talk tech with all the motorheads. Paid services include an all new for 2024 Billman TCT install (ask me in person for details). Please PM me for TCT availability, to reserve a unit.

Available to all attendees of the 2024 Dragon Event.

See you all soon….

This is fantastic! I'll try to get there early so hopefully you can tell me what a strange noise is that my car makes! I'm thinking it's driveshaft or axle related.

Very cool. I've never checked my rear axle nuts. I would be interested in having those checked.

**work list updated **

If anyone wants their axle nuts done, please show up with NO centercaps installed on the rear wheels. Some wheels require wheel removal to do so, to pop the centercap out from the inside. We need to make good time, so we can

I can not promise any valve adjustments, but we can try to coordinate schedules and make it happen.

PM ME YOUR CELL NUMBER so we can text, if you are interested in getting the valves done. We see how it pans out.

I have 6 tensioners and two are sold. PM to reserve. If I have leftovers it will be first come first serve at tech morning
