So the manual in incorrect then?? Well, in the sense of the droop settings

The guy at the track did mention something about droop but I dont get how the droop is effected. Cant you adjust the droop with the droop screws to make it have more droop? You screw in the shock shaft the same distance into the ball cup whether its short or long ball cups. Is it that the overall length is longer (the shaft stays the same lenght but the longer ball cup increases the lengh)?? If the length of the shaft is longer wouldnt that make the springs softer or would you screw down the adjuster to make it the same stiffness as if the short ball cup was used.

Have I made sense??
