Looks like something is wrong at the front, with that much preload on the spring. That would actually indicate a spring that's too soft and the adjuster had to raised way up to get the necessary ride height.

Did Ride tech ask for all of the dimensions on the spring rate calculator? If not, I'd be sure that they really know what they are. I've talked to some of their tech guys who seem to be clueless.

The length of the front shock should be no more than 11.6 inches at ride height.
