i just had my front axis shocks rebuilt and it seems to sit a little higher than it did b4 in the front and when i adjust the preload to lower it down wont do me any good it hits bottom out bumpers when coming down off jumps. my frame dosent smack the ground or anything. when i have it setup like b4 it wont bottom on the bumpers

my ride height with me on the bike is 8-1/2 inches behind the pegs and 9 inches from bottom back a-arm bolt, thats with shocks setup like before i had them serviced

my rear shock is stock and stock settings i havent messed with it none because it seemed to be pretty good considering i dont bottom it when landing
