Cool photo instructional. You missed your calling if you're not a teacher.

the springs make a world of difference! easier to steer and almost no sag when lifting plow!

Well got a good 14 inches last night. With the new shocks the machine barely squatted lifting the plow, but more importantly steering was much better. For plowing this is the way to go for sure. I'll have to wait till summer to see how it feels on the trail, but I'm suspecting I get a more positive response from the front end and will get less roll in the corner, both of which are my preference. Granted the ride will not be as "plush" but I think it will be a better feel for me.

On another note - got to do some fishing on MLK day. Daughter got a 15 1/2" Rainbow and Boy got a big fat white perch. Plowed a trail on the lake and around the ice shack with the SP500 X2 - worked great and the others in the party apprecitated me making trails through the 14 inches of snow.

5 J's -

Wow, glad to hear the good report! Ya never know maybe it won't
impact that "plush" ride too much. Yea I need to install mine and
this thread with all your good info. will be a good resource. I hope
to do it in the following days ahead, we got a little snow today but
none to pull the plow out for, LOL.

Cheers,

R'
