A slight change in plans.  Since Peter's
van is in Utah and may not make it back
in time to permit me to do what I had
hoped this weekend, I am going to mount
the betts front and rear springs on my
van over the weekend in time for my trip
to my favorite death valley hideout next
week.  This will give me about 100 miles
of rough dirt road and other conditions
to test them.  I will be back the 25th,
in time to place an order by May 1.

I am doing this for two reasons.  First,
i just did not have the time to do much
testing at Hollister because i had my
kids with me.  Peter and Mark did most
of that work.  Second, my approach is
slightly different than Peter and
Mark's. I don't carry as much weight as
Mark and I prefer optimum  handling over
increased ride height.  In the end, I
may stay with Marks' specs, or we may
have two syncro springs to choose from,
depending on what Mark does down the
road after he does more testing on his
Baja trip.
Now I have to get back to my real job!
