    Micah and I both talked about this. Most guys like heavy, but I like mine on the softer side.

    I really like the 650's and I'm not running much preload either. About 1/2" of threads are showing the inner CV boots just clear from rubbing.

    I have a synthetic line on the winch and I don't have armor, but I got everything else and it doesn't sag. If I add armor I can add more preload and I prefer that to having that over really stiff springs. IMO 700 is too much.

    I got a little dude coming! I'm going into this without expectations. As long as he's healthy, I'm game for anything.

    Truth.

    We didn't find out the gender until she was already into the world. I cried like a baby when she was born. Totally healthy, thank God.

    You can always add preload, but if the springs are too stiff you're kind of stuck. Micah sent mine over with 1" of threads showing but it was too much lift, so I brought it down 1/2. That means you can always add more to get the lift, and 650's are stiff! Cranking down on those with the spring compressor to spin the top was tough.

    That's awesome man! I've never cried tears of joy, never not even close. I lost it when I first heard the heart beat and saw the ultra sound.

    Call Micah @Downsouth Motorsports, he'll hook you up. Those guys know their stuff, just tell him what you have and what kind ride you want.
