    I hauled 6 loads of dirt today and was wondering if you think I should get the rear TSB done?

    So you think if I show these pictures to the dealer they will be more likely to approve it? because im not sure how much weight it actually was.

    ^^ Couldn't hurt. I placed mine on my phone, took her in, told the dude I had photos to prove my point but no one cared to see them which was cool with me. Just bring them as backup and show them if you need to.

    i got the TSB and think it's a huge improvement. I wouldn't show them the pics though, you might be over on weight which gives them a reason to hassle you. I'd tell him you were hauling and felt unsafe and it was a rough ride. Felt like you were unstable and bottoming out. Worked for me. Good luck.

    My pics showed my bike in the back which is just over 500lbs - nothing more, nothing less.

    There are better people on here to answer your question about off-road w/ the tsb. I plan on beating the crap out of it when I'm able.
