For those of you guys how are dropped.... got a question for ya. I just dropped my hoe a couple of weeks ago and as I was doing it, this came to thought.
The rear springs are MUCH shorter than the stock ones. The stock was were held snug in place and didn't move even when the hoe was lifted up on the jack. The new ones are so short, that when the hoe is lifted on a jack, the spring is just kinda sitting there. When I installed them, we had to lower it down slowly and I was manuvering the spring to make sure it was sitting correctly.
Now that I have said that...this is where my question comes in to play. For those of you how take you hoe to get oil changed or other work done where it is lifted up, how do you handle that. Do you go out there when they are lowering it from the lift and make sure the springs are sitting in correct spot? I know you could tell the person at the shop to do this... but I think they could really care less and would just lower it down and where ever the spring happened to be, there is where it would be.
Well enough rambling... hopefully this makes sense and some others could provide there there experience or input.
