All depends where it's parked. Needs to be on a flat surface. Even if the rear end is on an ice chunk it will sag out. Similar to of you have it on floor Dolly's

Makes sense for sure if the weight isn't distributed evenly between front and rear. HD springs in my future. Gonna have to come out of next years budget though lol come on jan 1st

lol no.

but seriously. if your even parked on a bump on the trail it will sag right out due to all the weight being on the rear wheels.

There is some truth to what he says, I had buddy on a rear dolly and sagged out I said WTF is this and then put it flat on floor and gone, hmmmmmm

Must have to do with the weight distribution/some kind of leverage effect. Makes sense in my head at least, if the math works is beyond me

That's interesting. I had mine on dolly's set at 2 and it was sagging like crazy. So I grabbed the socket and cranked it up to the fat kid setting. With that harder spring setting in the rear I had a noticeably harder time getting started facing uphill in fresh snow than I did the week before set on #2. I'll have to change it back to #2 and try it this weekend.

Page 20 already? I'm not going to read all this BS, so I have to assume there is a lot of broken crap on this doo junk already. Sad, sad, sad.
