you should have just measured and got some JKS eye to eye conversion then you could run it whichever way you want and youd have more down travel...

I have the same shocks I think. It's nice because the bar pin is fused to the bushing. No clunk. The ride is awsome. Mine are 3" and I'm running a 4" now with plenty of travel and proper front stops.
