Been there done that.. got the hardware as a souvenir.
Working with my hands has never been the same, but I had an awesome surgeon who at least gave me my hands back.

Good luck and best wishes for a happy recovery.

Sure that everyone here is just glad to hear that you are ok, that is pretty well my single biggest fear is someone pulling out in front of me in an intersection, or just running me over in an intersection. I knew someone last year that got run over in an intersection by a full size dodge, RIP Lori

Thanks Guys! Just to note, I am SUPER pleased with the mods. It sounds awesome. I was hesitant with the forwards and apes, as I was gonna do the drag bar look, but I see that alot. The apes and forwards are INCREDIBLE i love it couldnt be happier at this point.
