Crud, thanks for the help buddy. Aint it funny how someone can destroy something in minutes you have used for years with no damage?

 

[cpwolf]

Yeah, I’d put some wd40 on and then just pull through with the zipper. Get a run at it

Most guys have fewer friends than you've had wives...

Always a chance, but you might lose a zipper pull... maybe strip out the filaments from a 2 foot length of para-cord, and loop directly through the eye that the metal pull tab goes through... then pull straight along zipper track. you might also want to use some lube that has a stickier quality to it... like motorcycle chain lube, the kind with wax, or some silicone spray...

So... probably not a good idea

Well, you're going to need to do it sometime... I'd just want a backup around in case of a failure though...

Edit: Where in TN are you?

But have you had as many as @TheBoogieman has had? Last count I think he was up to 25.......

But that could be Jeeps.....

That’s a big 10-4 negatore ghost rider. On number 1 now, if for some reason that one doesn’t work out, never again.

I’ve told her before we would’ve been better off not getting married and just live together, have kids, let her get that single mother government assistance, and me rent “my” house to her. I would then pay her child support, let her get the massive tax breaks every year, and still have the same bank account…just because f the irs/federal government.

That really would have been a smart move!!!!

We had a similar discussion. She had a 5 year old at the time, (She's 34 this year), but we decided to try to set a Good Example, so we got married.

Nothing wrong with that man. Told her we still would’ve had a wedding and, in my mind, been married in the eyes of God and everyone…just not the federal government
