Interesting I've had the exact opposite experience. I felt that they help smooth out the suspension cycle.
Either way I'd assume that the 3.5's are not long enough as they will compress as the longer ones do and will allow the shock to bottom out. They will slow the suspension compression down but will not stop it before the shock bottoms out.
I'd as the plastics guy the question. He probably knows what shock compression length they are designed for.
Once upon a time I asked about my 4th gen Bilsteins that I was running in the rear and he said the 5.25" ones were specifically designed for that shock length. The LC shocks are longer from what I remember.
