Need a little help with a BRZ in OC

greetings Gents,

I'm an older BRZ owner who loves wrenching on my car. However I can't get my self folded into the footwell of the car due to having a metal rod in my back and two steel hips. it's a drag, but at least I can still walk and drive.


Can somebody in OC give me a hand in exchange for beer money? Trying to change out the clutch helper spring, its a ten minute job but you have to be upside down and folded into the footwell.

Ive Got all the parts, including new spring, clevis pin and c-clip.

Not in a rush.

I'll offer $20 beer money for somebody mechanically inclined who can fold themselves into the footwell long enough to pop the C-clip ( i have ring pliers) and swap the springs. Shold take 5 minutes, 10 at most.

Huntington Beach location. Nights/weekends are best for me.

Any takers?

thx,

RC
