Nice!! I'll do that tonight and post a picture here tomorrow.
Thanks Shiloh .. like most have said they should have been mounted a little further Forward. But I think you will be fine. You can rub some grease on the slider to see how far the The roller moves .I can tell you with a quality shock you will get less separation and less movement in the rear. With my setup I get less than 3/4 inch of movement on the roller now.

I agree with you... Maybe moving 1" forward the slider will be perfect. I'm running with Viking DA shocks that should provide less separation (I hope). I will rub some grease and make a movie with my GoPro camera to check the clearance and separation. I see that Calvert spring has less separation than OEM springs So I hope that slider slot will have clearance enough to keept welded in the same place. Let's check it out soon..  Thanks Man!

They will clunk and clang on the street(with a decent exhaust you will hear them).. anything that isnt rubber isolated will make some noise.. if you use them they need to be cleaned and lubed on a regular basis.. same as ladder bars or any other parts that are steel on steel
