I had to go back out and see him today, the shims he have me were 6mm ID... No dramas new 8mm ID shims swapped over.

While I was there I spoke to him about the shock and showed him the rest of the video. He is of the opinion that the LSC is a bit soft causing it to ride low in the stroke, any HSC impacts during this causes it to blow through and hit the bump stop causing the kick in the pants I've been getting.
His recommendation was to add a few clicks of LSC and see how it goes which was my plan anyway.
But since I was there I got curious and asked about the rear spring, currently with a 6.0 and 13mm preload I end up with 25mm static/98mm race. He advised that I could continue to use the current spring, however ideally going up a rate or two would benefit me as it would encourage the rear to sit up and the stroke and I'd be able to keep the LSC clickers where they are. He must of felt sorry for me because he gave me a great discount on a new 6.4 spring. I guess this means I'm now officially a fat arse
