The actual measurement of travel does not really tell you how the actual ride is improved. I am running limiting straps to prevent damage to the cv's and steering components. Care must be taken with these sort of mods.
Are there any other bolt-on aftermarket shocks that are firmer than the OME's that will take advantage of this extra travel other than the custom Fox setup?

I would be interested to hear a new down travel measurement and rim to fender measurement.
