Default progressive drop in kit

I have a 2005 Softail Deluxe that I installed the Progressive drop in front springs. it rides great, I cut the PVC for a 2" drop. my question is , can I take an extra 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch more of the PVC to get a little more drop. Thanks

You can drop it as far as you want but then you run the risk of the front fender hitting the lower tree.....and the more travel you take out of it the rougher it will ride.

I cut extra out of mine and it still rides great. You can get bumb stops if you're concerned about hitting your fender
