[QUOTE="ossagp, post: 201944, member: 1650"] You and Floyd. For year he held onto an Allison v12 that he was going to put into a 56 cadillac (had a hood almost long enough.) if he wants to give up some travel, putting a spacer inside the shock and backing off the preload mechanism may be all that is needed. just like letting it sag more, his damping will seem on the harsh side on the little stuff. having one of the shock houses adjust the damping and shorten it may be the best solution, but anyway he does it, he loses some bottoming room. cutting the spring will make it stiffer. the spacer is cheap and easy if he likes the spring he has now. remember if he dumps the back down it gets more weight put onto if the front doesn't come down a like amount.
