there's no real measurement other than a "before and after" between the tire and fender. the cognito's, i think, are shock extenders for the front. there's no need to change the rear shocks other than getting rid of the stock shock. if you're going to do that, i'd go for something better than cognito. personally, i don't think the shock extenders are necessary. i've had my t-bars cranked for over 2 years and have no extenders up front. maybe the H2 is different than the H3, but i think it's just a reason to get people to spend money for the extenders - i still don't know why they're supposedly required. . . . . .

but i heard, on the H3's if you crank them too high, you start getting the bouncing effect because your front shocks are extended.
I've already cranked my t-bars but only 2.5 turns. Still not level as other H3's i've seen on this board.

I actually saw this link. I must have missed it. It was late last night that i was reading it. 
Anyways, thanks for posting. I'll keep that setting in mind. I might order the cognitos and give them a try. I too will probably keep the front a little lower then the rears for loading purposes.

Look at the last one for info on the cognitos. I don't know of anyone with all 4 Bilstein Cognitos, and nobody has been complaining about not having them on the rear??? Personally, I leveled mine across the front, went a wee tad further, but intentionally left the front a liffle lower than the rear fo when you load the back so you don't get a nose bleed ride.
