It depends where your shock mounts are. Set it all up with the trailing arms parallel to the ground, then measure the distance between the centres of
the mounting holes. Add half your shock travel, say 1.5 inches for open size and minus 1.5 inches for closed size. This assumes nothing else prevents
this much movement of the suspension.
Mine are 180 lb on a live axle but are probably a little hard.
