I'm not too worried.

A week before I started this project I measured the full stuff of my tires in my writeup here:

With my setup 3" BL and 40" tires it's about 21" between shock mounts where you will be fully stuffed in the front. This exact measurement is where my lower links are at their maximum upward position.

At the point where the lower links become perfectly level and almost hit the frame is the same point where I will be fully stuffed. Here's another pic:



Thanks for all your comments. It was a great learning experience for me and hopefully this year I will be able to test it out to it's fullest.
