i would wait, you dont want to have to tow it back if you get any problems

i'd wait until you get back, because you never know what problems you may run into, and it may postpone your trip.

you know memorial day only comes one time a year

id say do it and just take your gf's car for the trip or rent a car. but i wouldn't take a fresh swapped car for a trip like that.

renting a car for 5 days can be pricey however that is a great idea... oh and gf car sucks on gas so im gunna wait till after, however im still buying the parts from you, Your site ROCKS A++ so helpful for swap... (im not a good fabricater, for the mount)
