It's a thought, X, and isn't out of the question. One of my increasing limitations in the past two years is cervical arthritis. Time on my back or cranking my neck just downright hurts. Year before last, I wasn't able to drive or even mow my lawn without being dizzy due to nerve impingement from arthritis and inflammation. This from a guy who's packed antelope, mule deer and elk on his back. (Probably some of the reason for it.) Periodic epidural injections into my spine are holding spinal surgery at bay for now.
I'd love to do it myself. And may. Picked up a new creeper and tools to try. Just depends upon how I'm doin' at any given moment. Welcome to your 50's in a body abused by ranching, football, backpacking, hunting, workin' in the woods, two different drivers T-boning my rigs, and of course wrestling a woman or three... (Preferably at the same time.)
So, I'm askin' just in case I'm not up to the whole job come time later this year.
It's all good. Got a lot o' great memories.
Hope you fellas never have to deal with anything like it.
Sure has cut back on my fun.
