    hydraulic is awesome but manual isn't too bad if you're not trying to make a couple projects a day

    I know, I know. But last year my truck wasn't ready and this year the job interview and move to new building plus preggo wife didn't help, even though the truck would have done great. Cest la vie. There is always next year or next time, which ever comes first.
    Shit, I'm not sure when I will be able to go next since I am back to work and coaching again and new baby. Life is pretty packed at the moment, but there is always a day to be taken somewhere to go do some wheelin.

    A mod, huh? Haven't done one of those for a while. I don't think I need anything built but I could try to come help if you want some company sometime.
    Oh and my buddy who works at the machine shop says they still need guys. Pretty good money. Not sure if you were still at gibs and still looking to leave. Haven't been keeping up with TW like I used to.

    i got 11" but i would NOT reccomend that length unless you know your exact compressed/ extended length you need. my numbers were a little wonky with my set up and i have longer bumb stops.

    what set up are you running?
