Looks good ... I see some ommisions (ie Shorter suspension travel and how it effects shock valving, or how shorter suspension travel requires higher spring rates to keep you off the bumpstops, and why running on the bumpstops is bad and how it wears out the shocks(very high rate springs)) ..BUT I figure they will be covered in future "installments" ... if not ...

Shock travel is designed to match spring travel with the bulk of the springs travel falling with in the "sweet spot" of the shocks valving range. So OE shocks and spring are matched ...Ie as short as they should be
