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.



I hope you're not serious.

or, that your floor jack has mechanical safety catches on it to prevent it from collapsing.

the best way to do it would be to have it sitting on the ground, as it will travel down the road.

since most of us are thicker than 4" and can't reach under there to measure, the next best thing would be to put jack stands under the rear axle just inside the tires, and up front on the control arms, just inside the tires, this will make the car level and simulate "as it goes down the road."
