    Indeed the end result is looking that it was worth the aggravation. I'm just hoping I'm happy with the way it will look with the tower on.... hoping to install it this weekend... Not to far from you today... in Fort Payne, AL.

    That's a long way from home. And you're only about 1.5 hours from me as well. Are you working there, or just passing through?

    Dropping off some coils and heading for home...not that far.. 1000 miles maybe. Hopefully I don't have to wait to long to find something home. Need to make a stop in Toronto to pick up a new rad for the old girl here.
    Funny I probably could visit most of you individually any given week. Started my day this morning in Dayton, and here I sit 7 and a bit hours of driving later. I've been at this for 20 years and the one thing you learn is that the world isn't as big as you think it is.... travelwise I mean.

    Know the feeling there man, I have had breakfast in Toronto, lunch in Houston, followed by dinner and cervesa pool side in Mexico. Drives the credit card and banks crazy too as they think the card has been stolen.

    Ya it sucks but I'm piecing it together now. Picked up my tower yesterday... did a quick set up on the lawn to see what it looked like... I don't mind it.



    Not sure if I like how it bows out... I can adjust it a little, and maybe it will depend too where the feet get place.

    well..... not the best of days for me. Tower is almost on... really tough to put backing on and wiggle my arms in the small spaces. On top of that on one of the bolts the thread was damaged a little bit but I decided to use it anyway.. long story short I ended up having to snap the bolt to get it off. Gonna see if they'll send me a new one...I doubt it. anyway don't think it looks to bad any thoughts?

    Didn't even make it to the nylock...

    The rear arms on the tower will swivle in.

    I just put a realy similar tower on the bravura last week.
    I like the way they bow out less chance of hiting your head on the tube.
