    Yeah no more +1, mine was gooft tall, that was the telltale that I had to french the front hangers and ditch the overload. They're 3/4t springs, I'm not gonna overload them and I want to be able to go a little negative arch for flex purposes.

    Yeah, that is not cool. Did you measure the frame height before taking the leaf out?

    I did not, I don't expect to lose more than an inch from removing the overload though, that's its section height and the pack doesn't really use it for support other than overload situations. But frenching the hangers into the frame should pull another 1.5" out of it too.

    My axles are on the stands at 15 inches. So, like a 30" tire. The frame height is a 23.5. When I raise the front to level its over 25". lol. I want a 24.5" frame height with the 40's. Im gonna take those fuckers out manana. Now im not gonna be able to sleep cause I want to go to the shop.

    Git er done, those center bolts come out easy peasy and you don't even need to clamp the pack to do it, easiest leaf removal I've ever done
