Jim,
Effect on rate is negligible with a take up spring, rate is less than 5#/in. Take up springs add 3/4" when compressed, the amount by which you back off the adjuster to maintain ride height. They will "take-up" about a 3" gap if needed. Yours is exactly the situation for which they are designed.
