It sits about the same height without shocks, maybe 3/4 inch lower,
but the ride is terrible. Its damn near impossible to drive above 60.
I'l check the stroke when I get off work

 

yeah thats why i extended the lower mount.

 

so, with the bags fully inflated, the fender sits at 29 3/4" off the ground, and deflated its at 23 1/4", so about 6 1/2" of stroke. but my bags arent bottomed out when deflated, theyre sort of smashed in the spring cup, and holding it up a couple inches. i guess cus the billows are a larger diameter than the 2500# bags. i definitely gotta fix that, and not cruise with em fully deflated. further increasing the need for a new rear link setup.

 

so you used #2600 bags? i wish i would have. it would ride a lot better and use less psi to lift

 

here are some pics of how it looks now that the back is lower. something ruined the image quality though.
down


up

 

first pic is now desktop background.Thanx and sexier ride by the day

 

wow . it looks great...i'm jealous...........is 2nd pic all the way up???

 

yeah, i'm runnin about 40 psi right now, its kinda slow gettin up ( 4 sec. ), but im using less nitrogen that way. with no shocks, runnin 160 psi, and toggling the switch, i was hoppin the rear, but that drained my bottle real quick ( hella fun though )

 

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet love that look
