 The problem with said pack may be that it doesn't have enough suspension to
 handle 2.5 gallons of water [20 pounds]. Try it with 50-60 pounds and see
 how the suspension works >>

I realize for the most part my Dana Terraplane is overkill, it works 
wonderfully with the heavy loads.  

What's an extra five pounds when you love what you're doing?
