Lowered Nad

[tomk]

Hey BD,

I read Manson's post where he has lowered his Nad in the rear by 1 3/4". I've been toying with the idea for a while but I'd like to do both front and rear at the same time about an inch. I get the rear part where you buy shorter shocks but the front is a different matter.

I guess you can take the top spacer out and shorten it an inch and have more sag in the front forks. However, the lowering kits come with a shorter top spacer and a spacer you put into the bottom of the forks' internal shaft to limit the down travel or extension of the forks.

Do you have to have the short spacer in the bottom shaft or can you just cut the top spacer and let the forks sag another inch?

I can't see how it would hurt the handling but maybe I'm missing something?
