See, my issues are a bit different. At the moment "carpet racing" is in my mind....

And I want to get these 18mm of ride hight plus an appropriate amount of droop.

This is how it looks, now:
- no spacer in the shocks,
- 30% rebound
- core blue spring, long
- the length of the shocks, red is 96,2mm, even shorter as Tom mentions in his setup-sheet

On one figure you will see the 20mm of ground clearance, position "maximum low" after some "compressions. On the other figure you will see the maximum droop..... 46mm... quite a lot.

so, at the moment I see the following solutions:
- accept as it is
- something is mounted "wrong"
- use the old shock mount, which is "higher", which will reduce the ground clearance by these 2mm
- add a 2mm spacer in the shock to reduce this enormous amour of droop
- "extend" the thread on the piston rod by 1 or 2 mm, and shorten it, then...

Further ideas?
