    Only weight rating I can find on the 889s is "medium weight" which is easily what I have, so that's why I got them. They have a spring rate of 260 lbs and are 400mm long. The 898's which they suggest are 318 lbs and 400mm. Wheelers and OME both suggest having at least 400lbs extra weight at all times on the rear for the 898's, which I do not have. Not even close.

    And they haven't slipped the perches or anything? That's crazy.

    I am taking notes off your build in case I get an influx of cash to build mine a little.

    Just got my Pro Eagle finally. This thing is beast, and it should fit in my drawer in the back.

    Recently decided to rebuild my drawer system to move some weight around and stand the spare tire straight up. This is my progress so far.

    The drawer is a perfect fit for the pro eagle and has room for some tools on top of the pro eagle. To the right of the drawer will be where the tire stands up at.

    Randall started with a cardboard box as a welding table. So there is hope for anyone.

    To quote the great philosopher Drake “we started at the bottom now we are here”

    Ahhh the good old days. Looking back I can’t believe how I used to weld and how I weld now. It’s ridiculous.

    Edit: decided to look up when I bought that welder. October 2017. Been welding for a year and a half now! Crazy how time flies.

    You lit a cardboard box on fire trying to weld on it. In my book, you almost burned your house down.
