Well if the shock manufacturers actually listed the dampening rate it would be easier to answer that. Bigger shocks (diameter) usually have higher rates and heat disappation. More spring options would be nice too...

Now the threads getting some hits lol.

Throwing out the technical stuff now!

I'm gonna try to call hypercoil see if they make a heavier spring or could? Can't hurt to ask. I think a heavier spring would help the shock work a little less but as stated bigger/stronger/longer shock would prob improve it big time as well.

Need opinion, the nut on the top side of the stud top mount do I need to run a bushing or can I just run a washer and the nut or do I need little rubber there?

Big thing now is getting my fender height right and 60% downward travel set.

One day.

Probably want some rubber with the stud top but would be fine with just a washer with the procomp adapter

I see, the rubber bushing on the bottom isn't good enough, might have to cut current stud off and weld larger/longer threaded stud on then. HMMM

How come, as i still have your washer and no rubber? Or are you speaking of the top part of it, I.E. on top of the shock mount / on top of frame
