I'm not sure if that correct or not, but I wouldn't do it. If it were me, I would run a set of shock extenders and put longer shocks on. You need as much travel from the rear shock as you can get to dampen the load.

Regarding the "standard" gear ratio, all this is "assuming" the stock rear axle is still in place. Pull the cover as LONGHAIR suggested, and know for sure what you have in there.
