    Want to hear somethin funny? It may be put on the back burner for a little while. I may have aquired the parts needed to somewhat complete a project that's been roaming in my head. More details will come when/if I can figure it out.

      Yeah, MX3 crossmember and passenger side mount.

      Has your mind changed again? lol
      I peered out from the castle window and looked over the splendor of ROTM county. Yes, twas' a much simpler time back then. Peasants would go about their postings, and I, the mod, would rule over them with an iron fist.

              Well I have my baby coming within 4 weeks so everything is going to be done whenever it gets done lol. Basically I'm not worried about when it will get done. I am going to prep it this weekend. Get rid of the **** I won't use. Pics will follow.

              And we've(me and the wifey) come to the conclusion that in -2 yrs when the mpv is paid off I'm buying a car/truck. Maybe a ms3 or a full size truck(leaning towards the truck). The pro will then go under the knife. She will have a fe3 in her but I'm not going to be in a rush to get **** done. This will be a long ongoing project. There's things I want done but with it being my only means of transport I can't have the downtime I need to do the things I want to get done.
