Well I might have an extra set of brackets it we find some new shocks for me...I used them for about 6 months....I am a big boy as well (280).....using the brackets gave me about a 2 - 2 1/2" drop....this was all fine and dandy until I started riding two up....the girl on the back was about 130-140 and i was bottoming out...I turned the suspension all the way up and i was still bottoming out
