I finally got all the parts to my Denali this week ( fuck Amazon ) and I made the conversation from air ride to steel springs.

Yeah you guessed it, in the snow ( Fuck Amazon ) last weekend was in the 70's here but I was missing one part.

It's all done now plus a fresh oil change, and now I'm making chili. Nothing fancy, I'm tired and hungry so something simple and quick . And a long hot bath.

Wifey and I turned last weeks kill into hamburger today. (Except for the backstrap going on the grill tomorrow)
Then drank wine while we made a meat pyramid (not as kinky as it sounds)

What's deer burger like; drier so fat must be added, texture, etc.? Using ground beef as the standard

Air ride is to much maintenance and parts. Great choice on the conversion kit cheaper in the long run. The only problem I had was the air ride light stood on but there is a way to reset it.

Sampling end product.

For these burgers I added one egg to 8oz meat, (plus the over easy on top) which worked fine. When I do tacos I'll add 2-4 tbsp or so of olive oil or butter, otherwise it has a sandy texture.
Many people grind an equal amount of pork to venison.

I used the Moog springs and insulators. It lifted the rear up a little, but I knew that was a possibility.

For some damn reason none of my components were located where they was supposed to be. I mean none of the utube videos or forum descriptions matched . Diagnosis was a pain in the ass . But the repair itself only took about an hour plus I changed the shocks too. Even the shocks I took off didn't match the descriptions. WTF, I have shit luck sometimes . I'm going to do the fronts this week or weekend depending on weather and motivation or lack thereof.

That sucks . My kit came with a DVD they had YouTube channel.Remember you can sell your old parts too, if you got the time for eBay.
