The height will be what you set it at. He will do you up right with his rebuild and linkage. There is no debating, send it off and let us know how big of grin you had on your first ride out...:cool:

Best money you will spend.

Rico thanks for the reply. Laz was where I was thinking 99 percent mainly because of the great feedback, cost, and turnaround time. I'm just wanting a low stance, so I'm going to go with 7 inch link adjust my preload from there. I'm just wanting a pic. of the entire bike so I can get an estimate of lowering for the rear.

Here is a pic , but it went down a lot more when you were sitting on it. Never got a pic with anyone on it.

So about how much is it for the revalve and link from gt?

$265 give or take...that is with shipping back to you(that will be your price difference also)

I never got mine revalved or anything. I just got the mx linkage and i set it just right with my zps fronts. It would probly work alot better with a revalve though. I have no complaints what so ever with this linkage and stock shock.

I had my local guy do it. It is a heat dissapating paint.

looks good, do you know if that's the seven or eight inch link?

It is the mx link, the xc link would drop it even more.

:huh I figured the mx link would lower it more. Why's the xc link lower?
