Shock length can't be changed, and running to long of shocks can be hard on the suspension componets.

yes you can shorten the shocks, but i dont know how much they charge...might be $$ compared to buying another set of shocks.

i would call carls, fastrax ect and see on pricing to shorten them...or you can sell your shocks on here and ebay and use that money towards another set of shocks.

Yes they can be shortened. I would just send them right to Randy at Walker Evans.

I was unaware that they could be shortened. Do they just install a spacer inside the shock to keep it from fully extending?
