    Default rubber jacket for the rear spring

    rear fly all road dirt, ...... We know that.
    The rear suspension is the ideal safety net for collecting.
    until I have a way .... where only new gravel is
    the next day it was as if there was a mouse nest in the trunk.
    well,. Rear spring is slicing down and gravel between coils pfpfpf!
    I can pick up the rear spring completely apart

    I thought to myself ... Never more!
    Thus, suspension is a nice jacket
    Jacket is made from an old tire inside .... and a tube of glue sec

    simple and effective

    VERY COOL idea!

    I have actually been cleaning mine and spraying it with 100% silicon lube to keep it from drying out and cracking.

    Next time I have it on a lift I am going to do this mod!

    THANK YOU! Nice idea....
