Default Got new nuts....

Well I went out and purchased 16 brand shinning new U-bolt nuts and took the bag to the barn......

....stood there shacking the bag of new nuts expecting the 64 old ones to suddenly fall from the rafters.... no such luck!!!

Guess I will ahev to keep the new set after all.

If you look at the frame..... can you picture me sitting under the rear paret of the frame installing a small part of the rear winch fairleads...... of course I had covered the end of the frame with a 3 x4 feet sheet of 3/4 plywood as a work area......

.... now I crawled in under the frame late Sunday afternoon while working alone..... after some 20 minutes of hammering on the underside of the frame.... my stupid back went off in a spasm....
Rob had long since gone home the wife had gone to town and I just could not move to get out...... I sat there for about 30 minutes flat ass on the cement floor waiting for my back to relax...... finally rolled veeerrryyy carefully on my side... then my stomach and crawled out backward....... was fine once I got up.

I will wait for Rob to be around.... to finish the job.

Getting old sucks!!!!
