are you not worried about losing the upward travel by fitting lower shock mounts?
Surely you need the upward movement as much as the droop right?

there will be no change in the upward travel they will go as far as your bump stops allow..

keeping the wheels on the gnd is more important to me

Where'd you get yours from? What were your existing shocks on your Landy?

I have those +5s on my 90, very pleased with them...and they flex up fairly well I did bend the lower pins on my first rear set but second set seem to be ok.

They also have inbuilt bumpstops, although they aren't a substitute for proper ones.
