Nice catches considering the mud. Those little mudballs will clean up.
I would rather deal with that than the 10" of snow and freezing temperatures we have here. A local is picking the coons up every other day for the meat. Cleaning up those ringtails is on him.

Any reason you are removing the shock springs?
No need for them if you aint live marketing.

ST, The in-line springs may help some on extended checks. I dont have any experience except with 24 hr checks
