    Unfortunately I can't. Spring trips are always a no-go for me since I put in for elk hunting tags out west and results never come back before mid-April. If I commit to spring and somehow draw fall tags then it ruins hunting season.

    I told my boss the easy solution is just to give me more vacation time but he didn't agree.

    Well she's lifted, no shims and only a slight vibration just before stopping. You guys weren't kidding about Dobinsons's being smooth riding.

    Totalled out front 2.5" with full weight on it and back 3"

    Nice! I had his cousin jump out in front of me yesterday on a trail and trot along, showing me the sights! Just like in the movie Thunderheart.

    Interesting. I just clicked the link again and it took me to the right spot. It definitely wasn't me. Could be this phone, though. Sometimes it gets moody and doesn't work right.

    It might have been Google. After you mentioned it, I clicked on the link and it took at least 10 seconds for the location to hit.

    I can't wait, it drives really nice and I got the alignment marks just about where they were before I started. I did find a couple spots where it makes a tiny vibration so I'm going to lower the CB tomorrow. Then I'm adding curtains to my cap

    If the CB doesn't correct the problem, and you want to try shims, I have a set of 2* I'll mail you. Let me know.
