52in Spring Swap Shock Setup Question

[gm500hprat]

I did the 52in spring swap on my K15 tube buggy a few weeks ago, I'm not sure how to set the shocks up. Right now I'm running the 13in Travel Rancho 9000's I have and I know I'll need some bumps and limit straps. In about 6-9 months I'll have some 16-18in FOA's.

What I need to know is where to set the shocks at ride height as far as bump and droop go. I dont have a forklift to articulate it and im not done with my cross-over steering yet to move it around or drive it. It does seem like it will have more droop then bump but im not sure.

So if it's got 13in travel do I set the shock with ride height of like 4" bump and 9" droop or ?

I'm going to use a Ford type tower and the stock lower mounts for now with the stock shocks.

Thanks in advance...Art

Unfortunately I don't think there is any way to do it and be sure without flexin' it.

I'd wait to figure the shocks. I have 15" travel shocks on the blazer and it can use them all.
