moose that looks real good! how much did you lower it with the 422s? And what was the measurement on the shock threads?

In the ride height adjustment instructions, it says not to exceed 9/16-inch of exposed thread (9/16 equals a 2-inch drop). Just wondering what yours measured out at. I ask because I'm at exactly 9/16 but would like to go a little lower. Thanks

Drew, I would like to lower my Classic as well - have stock shocks on it now. Would you recommend the Progressive 422's? PM me your thoughts and price.
