Basically you are going to have to do the work. Just my suggestion, find out what you want for your maximum droop. Then measure the distance between the attachment points (shock bolts, etc), then subtract about 1/2-1". There is no set number because depending on the brand of straps, and how you mount them, they will stretch some.
