They are height adjustable to a certain extent. Koni Yellows have perches that you can set when you install the springs (Neuspeed has 5 and regular Yellow has 3). In order to adjust them, you need to disassemble the entire shock/spring assembly. You can get +/- 0.75" or so with each version.

and if the prech breaks the distance if falls is till something stops it .. there is no "stop" at 0.75 " below the perch ... the prech is movable up and down from stock loaction 0.75" so your reloacting the perch.....not adding another one.....

The perches are "grooves" in the shock housing. You basically move the c-clip to the groove that you want in order to set the height. If the c-clip comes off, you have bigger problems to worry about.
