Just re-evaluated my finances and after buying/paying for the MHI TT and some accessories (excluding oil cooler, radiator and gauges) I figured out that I won't have cash for the install till after the new year.

Looks like I bit off more than could chew for now. The wife is getting some certifications in her field soon so maybe I will be back on schedule if she can land a job...she might be making more than me soon.


Tell your kids to pay attention in high school.

Go for the DIY and I will gladly lend a hand. No experience in installation, but I have degrees in aerospace and mechanical engineering so I understand the concepts (for the little value that's it worth for installation haha)

Ummmm....you don't know me very well. I have problems with balsa wood airplanes. LOL

Seriously, I work about 110-125 hours every two weeks and after I get my sleep I might get three days off a pay period. In '05 I did a steroid cycle and I got huge, especially my hands and forearms from using strictly dumbells. Everybody at work jokes about the size of my hands. I'm screwed. My wife would have a better chance of installing it, she built a desk from pieces of wood that I thought was gonna be a train wreck but it turned out pretty damn good.

I'm gonna have to pay someone and that's the best decision I can make...believe me. The wait will suck but it'll be worth it. Maybe things will change if my wife gets a job.
