What setting did you put front shocks? Could you do detailed write up with pics? How do u like it?

Does it worse the effort/investment to do this mod?

I would really like to know what the ground clearance was before and after, at the front. If there is no loss of ground clearance, then I can't see any disadvantage to this setup.

With the shock adjusted to the soft setting i lost right at 3/4 inch but my rear shock was at #3 setting.With it adjusted to the max i gained 1" higher than standard.

How does it drive / ride with it set to max using the rear shocks on the front?
