Alright, so I am going to buy 2.5 lift springs, and I am wondering how do I calculate how long the shocks need to be?
What metric do I go by to figure it out?

Should be able to find compressed and extended lengths from the parts numbers.

Yeah, but is there something I should measure to find the approximate length of em?
Fox 2.0 shock part numbers for 4” lift??
Anybody have these? I searched but didn’t come up with anything. 2.5” OME lift with 1.5” CCOT shackles. Thanks

You have to measure your rig at full droop and full compression to actually know for sure. Then find a shock that has compressed and extended length that will work.
