Generally speaking this entails removing the shock and spring so that you have easy free access to do this.

Just my keyboard mechanic thinking, if you had the car on alignment frame measuring toe, couldn't you lift and pull down the front end and measure the toe change versus +/-height change

It would be interesting to measure the steering rod angle as it is the variable you are wanting to change and there should be the angle where the reduction of toe change is optimized (probable need the lower A arm angle to compensate for different prefferances in ride height
