Swapped the shocks. More shock math. All of this is theoretical until I cycle, set bumps. In other words, largely meaningless.

‘Up’ is the exposed shock shaft length at ride height. This is the potential up travel and may be limited by other factors, tire clearance, etc. I doubt i get the 4.75 up with other clearance issues. I’m going to hang on to the 241s for now.
