Ok ya know how raptor rears fit 300exs. Maybe you could put a stock rear 300ex shock on there and that might work? just a thought...

I know a guy that put a works lowering kit on it and it helped out a lot.

The best way would be to put some zero preload shocks like Elka's on there. It will lower the ride height and increase handling dramatically. A little pricey though.
