What is the best way, besides bumper on the ground, to measure for excessive spring sag in the rear suspension? Searching the forum did not help. Thanks.

Most people measure from the ground to the center of the rear wheel well. Does that help?

The proper way is to measure from the hub to the fender.

That way variations in tire size has no effect.
