How do i determine the correct shock/shock length for a 76 40 series with a shake reversal and a 2.5inch lit on the front and 4 inch in the rear
 
shop around looking for shocks advertised as fitting 4" lifts
or
take off a front and rear shock an measure the over all lengths from center of eye to center of eye in the fully extended and fully retracted positions.
 
Measure the distance between shock mounting points with your suspension fully extended. Then take the same measurement with the suspension fully compressed. Take these two measurements and begin your shopping. If you don't have these measurements than you can end up with shocks that do not extend far enough or act as a bump stop when they bottom. Both of these conditions will damage your shocks.
