To get ok clearance with the Marzocchi Bomber CR i did a small modification on the coil and damper. I grinded of about 3 mm on the backside and now its all clear

Thanks for posting all your build updates - just had a question about the coil you're running. Did you have to increase the spring rate significantly from when you used the Marzocchi on a prior bike? The leverage curve of the 947 looks very steep with a very high starting ratio - like a Santa Cruz V10 or Nomad - just curious as I'd like to try a coil myself on a build and the info might help other folks as well. I'm looking to try an EXT Storia with a short 105mm coil, or a coil from SAR that's around the same length 105-110mm  Thanks again!
