Get home from mowing lawns... to mow yet another lawn. With a smaller, less efficient mower.

I wonder if the boss would notice the old ZTR missing overnight once a week...

new mirrors installed... check
3" exhaust tubing, and had it flared at the end...check
assorted c clamps/wide exhaust clamps/hangers...check
now i wait for the muffler

the guys at pops exhaust were really nice and knowledgable, they dont work with stainless there but he gave me a leftover aluminized 3" piece that is about 40" long for 15 bucks. if it lasts me 2 or 3 years ill be happy, gives me some time to find a piece of stainless in the mean time

Any of you fine gentlemen have any experience installing CCTV stuff? I'm more than a bit tired of what's been going on at the shop lately as far as shady activity.
