Nope,  head gaskets on the deer will be easy, but new bushings on the cat's tail will be a nightmare.   :o

Never explain, your friends don't need it, and your enemies won't believe you any way.

No, I was going to hang it from some pipe stagging in place.
I'm not sure when I can do it with all the calls for lumber coming in.

Not too bad a job as long as nothing else pops up.


Your lucky, my cat won't help with anything!! :D

Sheesh, I wonder about cats these days. ;D

   My vet has a placard up that says "Dogs come when called. Cats say 'Leave a message' ". So true.

   Good luck on your projects.

I thought the head gasket was going on the cat.

Is that the crankshaft support kit?
I checked my engine and the head gasket is the old one.
Not sure if I want to tackle the installs myself.
My mill only has 875 hrs on it but I hate to take a chance on a fail of either the gasket or the crankshaft.
I may try to get my mill to Hannibal this December before i head to FL.

Met a few cats over the years that needed their "O-rings" reamed out, but I'd never do it myself unless they were de-clawed.
