I like the eyelet method just because it's an easy reference point that only requires an inexpensive tool and no disassembly.

How often are you changing your shock locations? For the most part I only change tires, droop, and occasionally sway bars.
True, I'm not saying I don't set droop that way ever... I play with setup a lot. So in a given 4 hr practice session, I could possibly try 3-4 shock positions.

Now that I have a good base that works most places, I usually only change ride height and or droop. If my setup is way off I usually only change a spring, swaybar, oil, or bottom shock position.
