The ears are welded on I believe but I'd have to double check. I've got roughly an inch or so of compression travel before I hit bump stop travel and another inch or so of bump stop travel.

I just put my stiffer springs on but I'm guessing I might need to go even stiffer to get around this problem with my current struts. I'm thinking of just grabbing a set of Koni race inserts and modifying my kyb struts or just picking up a set of tubes from some random company. I'll talk to Bilstein tomorrow to see if they can shorten the shock body, but guessing from the response I got last time I don't think its going to be something they'll do.
