Sweet. Just post up what your plans are gonna be when it gets closer and when the dates are solid. There's plenty of yokels who'll be willing to do some runs with ya. Where'd you live when you lived around here BTW?

I was raised in sandy area but had a house in south jordan before I moved up here. I even spent a year in logan and a year in tremonton when I was going to usu. I loved it up there but with the white owl and sultans as your only two choices for beer logan didnt work well for me. the rock climbing was great though on the fucoidal quartzyte in logan canyon. that and beaver mountain was wonderful, I love the back side of beaver some of the best powder and cliff drops I have found. dont know if you know kelly smith with wild yoats but the house he bought when he got married was my old house. his big sister and my wife and really good freinds and he is a heck of a guy.

Cool. Thanks. BTW, that was me asking on Pirate too (since Woody's servers were taking a

- of course using my usuall tact.

Definitely post a pic of the new one when you can. Just be curious to see it. That's a good reminder to go around and check them all though. Hmm, now where did I put that loctite?

Any updates NW-sickboy? I heard that the new springs handles better than the J springs/spacers combo on the streets. What is the minimum clearance between the tire and the wheel opening with the 6" spring + 1.5 spacer? ??? Looks like your cruiser was pretty level.
