Just picked up 2012 nytro xtx and trying to stiffen up the rear from bottoming out. I weigh 210lbs. I have spring preload adj set at hard, rear shock two clicks. Measure bumper not on sled 22 1/2" on sled 18". Get off sled it does not rebound stays at 18". Do i need to go to a stiffer spring?

I would start with hygear torsion spring spacers
X2, I'd have them re-valve the rear and put a hi-low valve in as well. the springs should be more for ride hieght and the shock should be what should control your ride.

X2 Revalve!
 
Shock only isolates suspension and springs hold it up. With that fact a revalve with not take the sag out! You dont want the sled sitting at the top of it's travel cause it would not ride very well, kinda like they did back in the 70's. The travel works both ways but your sag maybe to much.
 
definently the way to go, have them revalve shocks at same time.....pretty cheap for what you get
