How are you all doing it? Are you just setting shock shaft length to one consistent measurement or are you using some form of droop measurement during final setup?

Thanks a bunch.

Easy…..you build the shocks with the shock rod ends screwed on with no visible threads showing on the shock shaft.

Droop is then adjusted with shims inside shocks or if more droop is needed by unscrewing the shock rod ends 2-3 full turns.
