Good job I came and looked at this old post. I just had my finger hovering over the 'buy now' button on some 6" 300lb springs as I'm finding the 6" 400 that marlin supplied a little on the crashy side. I just ordered some 6mm thick rubber sheet to make up some rubbers for the top and bottom mounts so I'll see if that helps and at least it should reduce some of the noise. I haven't noticed the suspension bottom out yet though.
Does anyone use a lock nut on top of the upper rear spring mount to hold the hat in position once they've set the height. Mine are currently set on the lowest ride setting (wound all the way to the top) so hasn't been necessary. I want to raise the rear ride height by 2-3cm but I'm not sure that it won't slowly wind it's way back down in a short space of time.
