    Plus checking kingpins and leaf spring bushings won't hurt either .....

    The effect may be minor but I try to avoid putting any more stress on the equipment than I have to. I was always taught that the less you stress your tools the better off you'll be in the long run.

    Whether it's a lawn mower, big truck or a dispatcher no good can come from putting extra pressure on the tool. :|

    My steers were put on backwards, wrong rotational, from the factory and still lasted 150k. Never even noticed until I had them replaced and it was pointed out.
