Tried searching but it appears everyone looking to lower the ST has opted to replace the rear shock. I've got that on my list for future improvements (28" inseam here) but don't think the wife would be happy about me spending the $$ at this moment. Haven't pulled the rear shock to evaluate the possibility of modification so thought I'd ask the experts. Is there any room for modification of the top of the rear shock to shorten the distance between the top of the spring and the eye hole? I know that means playing with the hydraulics and that it would mess with the handling to some degree but was just thinking that it might be a fun project while the weather is cold. Anyone have some good pics of the top of the shock? Is the part where the top of the spring sits and the preload connects welded on or mechanically connected?
Thanks

I added a plan of attack below. Take a look and let me know what you think.
