shove it all the way in pull it out 3/4 " now measure from center to center

& just put a pair of jackstands under the rear axle (instead of the framerails) to get a "loaded" reading or easier yet just slide a floor jack under the 3rd member(the center) & get the car high enough so you can get up in there & get a measurement.
