Well talking with other members and close friends. I wont continue progress thread. I will post end results only and answer questions. No sense in spending time posting, when there is no relly any interest in this swap. I will say i have 6k invested so far. Lol....

Tata...

I will be available for questions via pm.....

thanks guys, its not that i dont care. its just so sad to talk to yourself. I will post major accomplishments, i just wont go and post, hey i torqued this bolt.

i had to order a new mount, as the one i got (for free, and not complaining) was tweaked from the wreck, cannot fix it, tried. so that sets me back... but its ok...
