I'm interested in hearing everyones answers for this question as I have been wondering the same thing. Would increasing the bumpstop length the lift height plus one half the tire size increase put the upward travel back at stock. I don't really want to trim and I was rubbing pretty bad up front on the last run. Not trying to hijack your thread Lliamsdad, just have the same question.

people say that you need to ad as much bump stop as you do lift. I carefully flex mine out untill i want it to stop, measure, then add that much bump stop. Right now my tire stops 1/8in before hitting my fender

if you want more tech search for low cog write ups

Awesome. Appreciate that. I think I found what I needed. So I could just raise one side of the axle to where I almost touch fender, measure and use that dimension. Sounds like a plan to me. Thanks again.

forgot to mention. MAke sure you can turn side to side without hitting also. most time on a trail you will turn with you tire way up there
