So are you getting those knobbies you found on craigslist? Any pulley swap plans?

No not even thinking about pulley swapping it I don’t know any good pulley sizes.

If you plan to ford deep water, I'd look into it, but that's quite a bit of fab work. I would double up the springs tho.

They aren't that hard to fab up, you can do it without a welder too.
