Why not? Sounds like a good idea. We might want to start a separate thread for this...

El Gringo Spectacular!
Ome!!!
Finally found some time...and a buddy with a garage big enough to work in so we didn't freeze...to install the Old Man Emu Light load deluxe kit from Kurt at CruiserOutfitters!!
Install was simple....out with the old...
and in with the new!
Not too much difference in ride height...I gained about 0.5" in the rear, and about 1" up front, but the ride quality is.....Ahhh....so nice! I'm glad I went with the light load. It definitely still feels like a truck, but is no where near as stiff as the heavy springs that were on there! The new steering stabilizer is a fantastic improvement, too!!!!
