It seems like front driveshaft replacement and higher center of gravity will be the only negatives. Even though a drive shaft replacement means a better driveshaft. So I guess just hire center of gravity.

Does your "wife" actually understand what she wants and that entails? Women are lofty thinkers and rarely think through the reality of what something they think takes to accomplish and then when finally done, it is not what they expected.

lol that's some old timey thinking. I'd say the same about most men. I mean, look at how well budget lift companies do selling half baked kits.

Old Timey or not, I stand by it on the balance of probability.

Yes she understands what she wants but has no idea of what it will take to make it happen. She just wants me to make it happen and you know happy wife happy life. Besides that it gives me a reason to say I need to buy this new tool.
