There's no doubt the lower the shock the more vulnerable it is I've battered the eyelets up on a few myself.
If you have the fab ability there is always a custom location that work best for any given build.

Pretty much sums it up there Dave. This subject has been covered before, for anyone willing to do a thread search.
I did exactly as you've indicated, and made a custom pin mount on a pinless rear flip kit, getting about half the increased shock length from moving DOWN from the axle-based pin, without taking on the liability of the fully dropped pin. I posted pics of the setup on a previous flip kit thread, so won't waste the bandwidth repeating that.
I might drop by to see you in a few weeks on my way to Katemcy.
