Yeah, the mismatched spring rate and height combination really shortens the life.

I don't think so. I have heard that they are fine because the spring rates are matched to the shocks. I don't think that the difference in length causes any problems. Regardless, used Z shocks are not too hard to find nor are they very expensive.
