i leave about a 1/4" and never mess with it. But I'm also not winning all the time! lol

I'm not sure where thinkstoomuch is saying a 1/4 from. But if you get it too short on a rough track you will know. A good starting spot is 1/4-1/2in off the spring when you have the rearend hanging.

We always ran ours with about 1/2" to 3/4" of slack when sitting at ride height. This was on an open wheel and a late model.
