    Thanks man. I figured such, was just looking for confirmation. I ended up ordering this one based on more reviews and a slightly better rating.

    What did you set your compression and rebound at? I’m running c4 hybrid front, cbi dual swing out rear and bamf sliders and set the preload to 7/8” and now the front is topping out.

    I would maybe lower preload to 20mm if you're topping out at 22mm. or maybe try 18mm and add a 1/4 spacer on top of the coilover.
