new lawn mower

Bought a Hustler Raptor 60 last summer, love the thing and so far so good. I ordered and installed spring front forks which helped allot with the ride.
 
when you put on the spring front forks have you notice low spots being cut in lawn, thats biggest complaint i have seen with springs in the forks. you need deck on separate frame to stop that.
 
Haven't noticed anything obvious, I did lower the gauge wheels on the deck and only cut at the lowest setting on some really nice flat smooth ground.
 
I should have added. This is not a mower you want to cut an old pasture with. It will beat you to death on rough ground even with the spring front casters. My neighbor has some brand of zero turn he paid $12 grand for, told me he had it outfitted with a easy ride seat that was a $1000.00 option. He cuts his whole 10 acres with it, me I'm happy with my ~$4500.00 Raptor for the couple acres I use it on. The rough part of my place gets cut with my Ford 3000 pulling a JD 7 foot flail mower.
