Default Standard dog bone length for a pointy?

I know there's a few threads for this so I apologise about this, but there's no pictures on any so I'm unsure on whether I've actually for the right dogbones for raising the tail.

From inner hole edge to inner hole edge my new dog bones measure 120mm

From end of dog bone to end of dog bone it measures 160mm

Here's a pic for clarification (showing the 120mm measurement)

I'm assuming these will be enough to raise the back end the 45mm advertised on the ebay ad?

Merci!

Default Re: Standard dog bone length for a pointy

Standard bones are around 146mm center to center. Yours looks to be about 132mm, though the pic is too blurry to read the ruler accurately. The ratio between dogbone and ride height is variable depending on where you measure things and where you are within the suspension stroke, but I would expect that to give you your 45mm. It will also increase the rising rate action of the linkage.
