ZUK - FINDING SUSPENSION MEASUREMENTS

There was a thread on FB regarding shock lengths, and somebody posted this response. I thought it was a great simple method, so I'm sharing :)

"
Get the suspension to the point where you have the ride height and articulation that you want, then take it to a ditch.
Remove the shocks.
Then park diagonally in the ditch so that a front and the opposite rear tires are almost off the ground. 

Here you can measure for both extended and compressed shock lengths at both ends.

Add an inch for the extended length and subtract an inch for the compressed length and you will have the right measurements for YOUR setup.

Because there are so many options out there, we all tend to mix and match components so there really isn't any sure fire standard lengths for a lifted Zook.
