Not yet If i go that route looking for whole new system.they start at $250+ and look to have a larger coil.Have'nt looked at actual dimensions yet.Some more travel and a plush shock would be nice though.An upside down set up would be even better.Got to conserve a little cash for a bit before i get into that one.Maybe I can flip the stocker  :P

..i havent looked at how the top mounts, but i have a shock mount extender on my a50...a cpl of simple mods to it's design, and it could offset your shock...potentially as far as you needed it to be...

Ya don't think it would take much.I havn't pulled it off and realy thought about it yet,but its comming.As is it's not much of a rub but noticable when the spring compresses it cleans about a 1/4" of the tire.

O.K. so it raises the shock?Does it offset also? The top really needs to be pushed out on mine,but both would be great.After looking at it not alot i can do on the bottem of mine stock but the top I think is a loop and could be ground a bit.

...imma check it out on mine...

..probly tomorrow...lol...

..i can make it offset..i got the drawings of that one...

..thicken the yokes, angle the offset with radius at each transition...for strength...

..would gain 1 inch in seat height and maybe 1/2 inch in offset...just from my visualizations...
