Longer shocks / modded shock mounts?

I'm currently on fitting +1.5" springs and having done one have come across the issue of the shocks being too short. Rear shock on full extent doesnt reach between the mounts.

Whats the best way to measure up for new shocks?

Make sure your bumpstops are fitted and set to the height that you'll be running them. then flex it up to the point it lifts a wheel on each corner. measure between the upper and lower shock mounts at each corner then -1to2" off the compressed length and + a few inches to the extended length.
