Hi all,

I installed my 4" Triangle lift this past Saturday.  The procedure went
pretty smooth.  I started at 1:00 in the afternoon and finshed up around
8:30 that evening.  There were no problems and very few four letter words
were used.  I am very pleased with it.  The ride and handling have greatly
improved.  My old springs were just plain wore out.  I opted for Trailmaster
SSV shocks.  They were pricey, but I think they were worth the money.  I was
in too big of a hurry to get any before measurements, and haven't taken any
after measurements yet.  If I remember, I will do that tonight.  I was
worried that my 30 x 9.50 Mud Kings would be too small, but actually, I
think they're about perfect.  I can't wait to get some rain so I can play in
the mud.  

Gotta get back to work,
