Turns out, I do. I have to move some stuff, like the mower, and the trash cans, but I can have 13 feet when I need to.

Are you saying the Seven ain't a "real car"?! :P

I ended up hiring Craters and Freighters. They're going to deliver it with 2 trucks with liftgates. Paying more to do that than do it myself, but it'll be worth the peace of mind I think.

I'm definitely planning on getting something. Just trying to figure out if I need it NOW. If I don't I'll put it off, and want to get the QuickJack at some point...but if I do need it to start the build, then I'll probably have to pick something else up for now.

Let's do it! My build will unfortunately take quite some time though, as I will likely only spend a couple hours per week. Replying to your PM also.

I'll need to go measure, but I don't think so. I don't want to bother you. I have 3 kids, so it's gonna be a LOOOOONG build. I'll get some stands or dollies you recommended. Will I need a jack to lift it initially?

@IamScotticus I was planning to get jackstands. Would you say those are not sufficient for the build? I'd really like to avoid getting these because I want to try to store as few large things in the garage as possible.

Oh thank you! Very generous of you. I know it's quite a ways off since I haven't received the kit yet, but I've been stressed about this haha.

@IamScotticus yes the are. They're the Ryobi Link system. They're nice, but they're not as flexible as just doing straight pegboard. I see you're in Houston. Whereabouts are you? I'm over in Spring off the 99.

So with my order awaiting just a few final parts at the factory, I decided to prep my garage. Rich from Kampena told me it'll be a 3-5 week journey once it ships so I still have some time. I recently saw someone mention their order from Kampena got mixed up, made me a little worried about mine. Rich sent me a couple of pics during build though so hopefully mine will be fine. Looking forward to building the kit!

Yeah, I'm sort of stressing out about it now lol. Seems like I'm going to have to end up coordinating quite a few things.

I would love this! What separates a good build thread from an okay one? What sort of things should I be putting in the thread? I'm thinking I would keep my own journal/blog type thing, and can mirror it into the forum, but I'm not sure what sort of details I should be keeping track of.

Awesome this is super helpful. I've found a company named Craters and Freighters that might be able to accept the crates and then deliver them to me. This will be info I need to give them.

Thanks for the input! Just to be clear,are you saying a local trucking/moving company can be a substitute for the forklift?
