Sounds like you put some thought into this, but it was kind of short and to the point.
So far I do not regret leaving this thread live. Maybe as we share we can all learn something.
Thanks guys for the 'conversation(s)'
If you do decide to change them yourself, make absolutely sure that when you start to wind the springs that: #1, the winding bars are heavy enough to do the job, #2, you place yourself on the spring side of the hub (the spring will get shorter as you wind and you don't want to be in line of the hub). If a winding bar comes out of the setup, it will be a bullet and the spring will lengthen like a shot.
I see some truth and some 'interesting' facts coming out here,,, don't know how this is MC related but I suppose that could be somehow manipulated as well. Either way, I also find that it's becoming somewhat comical and staying away from a banned area. Like I said, watching!!
I'm thinking to get a semi, maybe safer that way,,, with a sleeper maybe, and a shower as well,,, and if I get all that, might add a fridge.
Looks good on yah,, enjoy it while you can.
