You ARE talking about making the link itself the hydraulic cylinder, correct? If so, then you are replacing the link with the cylinder. If the cylinder in it's shortest length is the same length as the original non-adjustable link, then it won't lower anything.

Why are you assuming that the effective length is the same as original???

The cylinder in it's shortest length is, let's say, 3in. The strut is 4-5in, depending. Also, the upper and lower pad ends could be machined maybe 1/8in on the strut side. This means that the pad-end-cylinder-collapsed length is effectively 2-3/4in, shortened 1-1/4in from it's original 4in length.

I don't see the problem you are trying to describe.
