remove housing assembly from vehicle, remove insert, find compatible desired shorter length insert with correct valving for desired spring, cut stock perch off stock housing/tube, smooth, measure, measure, cut appropriate length from stock tube, install new insert and washers if needed, re weld, slide coil-over threaded sleeve on, weld, installation is reverse of removal from here out- giggidy giggidy
