If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

haha, no I wont get her moving it...
I did "lift" it to lower it into the crate frame solo but wont try to move it. Just cause I could safely dead lift the weight in a controlled condition does not mean I could lift that and move it since the weight will be to far out and to many obstacles. Once its ready Ill find someone local.

I keep making a mess with uploading multiple copies, so if you get dead links just go to photobucket.

Crate is sealed, I will bring a cordless drill to the shipping place should they want to try and inspect anything...
Hopefully I can clean up tonight a bit and get my house back for Christmas, I got tools EVERYWHERE lol.

It looks like the shipping companies will have their work cut out for them if they are going to be the least bit successful at damaging that crate.

Hully crap, S50, that's gift wrapping at it's most engineered....this is really beyond merely offering advice at a distance to a fellow member...this is putting the wrench in his hands and handing him a beer during the procedure. You got a lotta karma (for those who accept it's existence) coming back to you...:clap:

I duct taped a wrench for the bolts since I was not sure if Chris had anything standard down there 
but I really do hope he has access to a power drill. It will be at least an hour long procedure to inspect anything past the top of the box, you will see upon opening it the top end of the motor and then on the back of the case is the rear spline section bubble wrapped then covered in cardboard. I put my spline from the wheel onto the drive shaft spline with some fresh moly 60 and then wrapped it with a rag and duct taped them together. Also got new stud bolts on with antiseize.
Chris if you read this I should have put a to do list for you in there... but
DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR AS IS.
The tensioner needs to be removed, valve cover and cams. Then start the full timing procedure and you should be good to go.

Yes, how are you doing on expenses? Aren't you still "short" quite a bit?
Perhaps some of the regulars in the Off Topic forum could help out.
Have you posted there?
Most of them, never seem to be interested in Suzuki's though so they probably missed it...
Edit: Chris, if you see this, could you PLEASE post the picture in today's memoirs titled "That's how I roll"?
I am CERTAIN that this bunch would enjoy it!!!

post what picture? I need to check my emails but I do have a login to edit the website and plan to get more involved in that. Its a lot easier for me to get online than him.
I will feel better when its dropped off, i dont think I will get a price until it gets trucked from my drop off in Boston to NYC. Rough estimate was like $600-$700 range and we got like $500 I think so far (way more than I expected tbh)
