I have a rear suspension assembly from a 1000 MTS including the adjustable tie-rod which I plan to install onto my MTS 620. I would like to avoid increasing the ride height of the rear and I am hoping someone can provide guidance on the best way to achieve this.
There seem to be two options:
Follow up question: The manual for the 1000 states that the ride height can be adjusted by adjusting the tie rod but doesn't state whether making the rod longer would increase or decrease the ride height. A quick look at the geometry of that assembly seems to suggest that making the rod longer would increase the ride height (indicating that the 1000 tie rod can only be adjusted to increase the height as it seems to come from the factory in the shortest configuration). Can anyone confirm?

- Install the 1000 shock but leave the 620 tie-rod in place
- Install the 1000 shock and the 1000 adjustable tie-rod
