Sorry, I forgot to answer your question. That answer is maybe, maybe not. There are sooooooo..... many factors that go into suspension. You want to "balance" your suspension both front and rear at the same time. So if you have planned mods to the front, best plan for an adjustment to the rear as well, not matter if it is minor or large. I have said many times before and will always say... suspension is the absolute best mod you could ever do to a bike, as long as it fits to the rider's preferences and or abilities.
