    Currently she's kind of a Bad Ass. She's in their Billing Dept. at the moment and does about double the amount of work as anyone else.

    Update: Got the new leaf pack/shocks in and WWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW.... what a huge difference, I should have done this a long time ago. Between that and detailing the truck, I feel like I have a whole new car. The ride is so much better. I dont know exactly how much lift I got b/c it was dark but it doesn't look like it has to much forward rake, probably just enough so when I tow it sits level.

    Welcome back, how is the truck?

    I think my boat has about a 400-500 lb tongue weight, but I think the new leafs will solve this. We will see 2maro.

    I did up until a month ago, and I sold it. Didn't have a use for it since I sold my vw. VWs are quirky little beasts.

    So do the new leafs give a smoother ride than the add a leaf? Really interested in this once since I am getting tired of the crappy harsh ride. How is it compaired to stock?

    Yeah a little smoother than the AAL but they seem much much stronger. The more the axel pushes up, the harder they push down. Compared to stock I would say it is much stiffer and a little more bouncy. It doesn't bother me as I prefer to have the rear more stiff than weak and bottoming out all the time. The true test will be how it handles my boat, bed full of gear, and four people for 8 hours. If this isn't strong enough I'll probably end up getting the additional AAL from OME Dakar.

    I drove that 05 Camry I mentioned. An 03 Accord, a 98 Accord.

    I think we're gonna go look around Friday. It's my day off, she's taking the day off anyways.

    Glad to see the new leafs appear to have solved your problems for you Neil. If their riding a little high, they may settle down a little bit.
