    It's dangerous. It's not like doing an old 67 chevy. I won't do it again on mine.
    Just sayin.

    Have you asked Danny I'm sure it won't cost that much besides I'm out of commission for a few more months even if I had access to one. At least then you know it's done safely that's worth something

    You are the one person I understand that about with all you have on your plate. Congratulations on your upcoming graduation then you "only" have the bar to worry about. My wife has been a parallegal for damn near 30 years. Pick a day when you will be free, organize it with Danny, and put everybody else on lockdown. Try to get him to do it in the morning and have an appointment for an alignment if your also going to have him install. That way it's done and you can move on to whatever other plans you have.

    You are wise, sir! That sounds like a plan. I just need to get it done.

    I just took my last exam a few hours ago! So not having school to deal with will free up a little time.

    Your wife probably knows as much as most lawyers!

    She is a parallegal by experience and never took the classes to get her papers. One attorney she worked for was teaching the class and she asked if she should take it. he laughed at her and said she could teach the class yet those who have the papers get paid more. She has worked exstensively in realestate, civill law I guess you'd call it with divorces and chid protection, collections, estate settlements, bankruptcy, and I'm sure other stuff I can't remember. I know you have to be relieved having that behind you. Now spend a little time pampering yourself getting some toys squared away. You may want to entertain getting Danny to look at yoir bumper and see what he'd charge to install it in case there are some adjustments that need to be made. Getting this stuff done to your truck will change your whole outlook about it. Will it cost you a little? yes, but unless you have the tooling and experience to do this stuff that will almost always be the case. I only say what I know even though some think I'm an uneducated asshole. I have dropped the NOVA thread but you know where to find me.

    I have never thought you were an uneducated asshole and I am impressed that you remembered I have all these parts laying around. Funny you mention the bumper and the NOVA thread because I just replied to your post about your bumper there. I am doing a little pampering haha. I am going to pick up a cap tonight (a little graduation gift for myself), and going to do some work on the truck Friday, but then it's back to studying for the bar until July!

    That's awesome about your wife I am sure she is very valuable for the attorney/attorneys she works for. I want to do Civil law, but not divorces or child custody. Estates, contracts, corporate stuff. Oh, and of course some criminal defense to keep it exciting.
