The bottom part of the Works shock is really big.
I had to grind the dog-bones to make them fit.
Also had to notch them so I had access to the Rebound dampening.
Using the Stock FZ600 dog-bones does reduce the ride height.
Another option is to use RZ350 dog-bones and have them shortened.
You might be able to make them a little shorter than Stock FZ600 (depending on shock clearance), and regain some ride height.

This is because the FZ swingarms dog-bone pivots are placed lower on the swingarm than the RZ's. You can correct that by shortening the dog-bones. It does the same thing as a longer shock. I believe I took 34mm out of the dog-bones to get it to the ride height I was looking for. But depending on the rear wheel/tire combo, you may need more or less removed from the dog-bones. So cut them long and work shorter.
Shortening the dog-bones is a pretty simple matter of cutting them in the center, removing the appropriate amount of material from one end, and then welding them back together. They are made of forged steel and weld rather easily............
