I have 1x2's cut to 12.5 inches for measuring the rear ride height; I
measure from the ground to the grease nipples on the bogie (single nipples,
not the double type). Been doing that for 20 years. Also run with the
bags shut off and adjust the next morning when on the road. No use running
the air pump throughout the day when traveling. JWID.
