On XS, you adjust the bolts for the spacing with no load and a new block. You actually set it up before installing in the plane I think. As the block compresses with time it will actually get to the point where the plates dont touch the block when adjusted to 79 mm and no load. With load the block will work as a shock, but the height of the nose of the plane will be less. I suppose you could get to the point where there is prop strike danger. Rule of thumb Ive been told is the top of the tire should be about an inch below the fuselage.
