    RRC suspension free length ?

    Has anyone measured the distance between the shock mounts on a RRC with the shocker disconected and the body raised as far as it will go??
    Preferable with the other side wheel raised?

    Just though i might be able to save myself a job.

    I haven't measured the shock mount length, but this is the method I use to get my coil springs out.
    A 420mm coil spring is just loose when I do that.

    The free length increases when you simultaneously jump on the axle while pulling the spring out.

    Does wonders for spinal flexibility.
