    Don’t forget to leave me your suggestion on the bike! Probably making the plunge this week so be ready😉 also if you have any interest in a portable power station, this Delta 2 is a serious game changer – very reasonable price point, LiFePO 4 battery chemistry (superior), 3000 cycles (over 8 years of use if you drain it 0 every single day). Use my code in the description for the discount it’s better than the one on their site👍🏻👍🏻)

    Enjoy life, makes living much easier. Friends I've known put airbag overloads mounted on the rear springs to help with the Xtra weight of campers. As for bikes I'm still riding a 1993 Kawasaki KLX650 (under 400 lbs wet, ~48 hp) fun dual sport. And I do like the EcoFlo DeltaPro system 36 kw.
    And last you are an amazing addition to YouTube.

    Most gurlz don't know to coat bolts and nuts with Anti-seize to make repairs (removing fasteners) easier. The stuff is super cheap and super easy to smear on the hardware with your finger.

    Mud, dirt, salty snow (or unsalted), and whatever other debris that might attach itself to the hardware will not seize the hardware so as to break when you attempt to undo the hardware. The Electrolysis monster gets in there!!
    Anti-seize is especially important when using stainless steel hardware or using steel bolts into aluminum parts.

    Make sure that bolts that go into (inside) a part with threads that you use lock washers to keep the bolts torqued in place. If you have have nuts that fit onto bolts make sure to use lock washers under the nut for the same reasons. You can still use Anti-seize on the bolts/nuts.
    Two basic lock washers are split ring and star washers. Split ring washers take much more torque, are much stronger, and do a much better job of maintaining torque.

    Final note, most add-on suspension parts, such as air bags come with skinny brackets. A little bit stonger bracket would be made of 1/4 inch steel. I favor brackets made of 3/8 inch steel to handle abuse. If anyone (SALESperson or "mechanic") attempts to talk you out of stronger brackets or sell you what they have in stock be polite (polite is not me) and convey that you will do more research.

    In my little town there is a fabricator/welder that can make strong brackets to support your air bags at the axle and at the frame. But short of traveling to my one horse town perhaps you can look for such fabricator/welders where you live. Personally, I would visit 2 or 3 and ask lots of questions and compare what each says and make a desicion based on their answers and experience (do they fabricate stuff for off-road vehicles and what thickness do they favor or will use whatever the have laying around).
    Anyway, be safe. I yield back the soap box…

    Bock bock bock because when a chicken stops laying eggs you put it in the pot. Egg chickens are typically pretty hard like jerky and you got to boil them really. Or do something to make them soft because it's not like other chicken
