Ok, NOW you've got my attention ..... tell more about your tree cutting level ...
I noticed that my notch and my backcut was always crooked when I compared it to my logger buddy so I started using a level with a magnet on my bar to get those 2 cuts started straight. Makes a big difference. I think I invented it or I am the only tree cutter that can’t make a straight cut. It is definitely safer when dropping a tree. I heat my house and shed with a boiler. I drop about 6 trees a year. It really makes a big difference on big trees.

I took it on a long ride yesterday on the road and ended up on some muddy wood trails. Front shocks are definitely better, back shocks are a little stiffer since I raised it up.

I got super atv and rough country shocks and 30 inch tusk aramid terrabites on. Front and back. So far I like it all. Shocks are a lot better than stock. During the job I found a broken brake mount that got fixed. I had to adjust the back shocks and add preload to the back to level the machine out. I used factory preload on front. My alignment is close but I’m going to drive it for a while and then check it. Thanks for you guys that gave me feedback along the way.

Seems a little knitpicky, I didn’t know you were supposed to center it. I cleaned it after last mud hole adventure and wrapped it up going back and forth and that’s where it stopped.

Another tip for buying these Aarms, vendors on eBay will offer used Superatv arms. Most of the time people order the wrong stuff and return it and that’s how used it is. I got front and back sets for 250 each.
