    What kind of bike? I rode Harley's for the better part of 30 years. Had 4. The Night Rod Special was the most fun but scary fast.

    Thanks man. Hoping to make a decision today and start the process. We're going in an hour or so to see 8 more. By noon we should have a good idea which one we want.

    North suburbs mostly.

    Keep those dicks crossed fellas!!

    Test fit into the garage was a success. Gotta lose the ski racks and the 9' firestik, but winter is over anyways and I'm not getting a garage that'll fit that.

    Lengthwise is excellent with a foot to spare even with the spare fully mounted!!

    :woot:

    :goingcrazy:

    Received my Warn Epic Hook today:

    28484A1A-A792-40D4-84C2-AF72BA42BB6C.jpg

    Still waiting on my synth line sleeve and then I'll install everything, but basically one of the cool kids like @EatSleepTacos and @boogie3478

    Placed an order for a few items as well:

    - DOM tubing for the new rear cross bracing; split shipping with my brother and it came out to under $75/person shipped. Not bad.
    - Reservoir mounts for my, eventual, rear Kongs from Ruffstuff
    - Warn Hook bump stop; @boogie3478 video convinced me; only $10.
    - ECGS bushing install kit/tool from jimsmola on IG; Check it out!

    What's wrong with a regular seal driver set? I've done about 5 installs with one and it works well. Just put a 2' cheater bar on it so you can get a good swing on a hammer to drive it in.

    Por que no las dos? Just feeling like balling out of control while trying to sell one house and buy another I guess...

    I have the normal one that is offered on ECGS's site (this new one I got today is supposedly going to be offered on their site as well). Either way, I can recoup my monies back selling second hand. Or keep both as I will likely find a use for everything on some other mod..

    I am shocked @boogie3478 didn't comment..
