You are welcome Robert. You can run between 1/2" and 3/4" showing on the front shocks for bump travel regardless of front shock travel. The rears, it depends on how long the travel is in them, the front are always set to .5 to .75" when best. After pre-loading the chassis from neutral your suspension and shock tops will be at different heights, and that is normal FYI. Have fun with your new car Robert, adjusting them is 1/2 the fun of racing for some of us.
