There are handful of these threads that just end, so figured no need to open a new one.
@210lbs I bottom out all the time on stock shocks.
I got the generic treat coil overs at 280mm to match the original length, and
cut my own 8/10mm bushing/insert to go the width of the shock + washer + 5mm spacer.
I have minimal 1mm clearance to the frame, but this just looks dodgy to me.
I want to avoid doing anything non-reversable. (like drilling out to M10)

M8-1.25 60mm bolt
custom 8/10mm insert
5mm wide, 10mm bore sleeve bearing as spacer
M10 & M8 Washers separating it all:
Bottom
M8-1.0 45mm bolt
original 5mm spacer
original M8-1.0 bolt.

Clearance is tight on the right side with the freewheel. Thoughts? Please show me your 50V rear shock upgrades
