Default Burly Slammer Shocks question

hey everybody,

Does anyone have the Burly slammer shocks with a chopped rear fender/fender struts?
Im trying to figure out the how far the Burly shocks will travel before I buy them. My reason is I am wanting to get rid of the rigid struts but im worried my fender will be smacking the tire if the shocks travel too far.

Here's a look at my current setup:


thanks,

Chase

well if i get the burly slammers, then they'd give me an extra half inch, but id probably have to move the fender mounts.

But if I do get shocks, then ill remove the springs from my seat and just put rubber stops on there
