Rear shock length

Hi there,

I need some help with something. I'm fitting a öhlins rear shock on my 03 and want to extend it more compared to the old one to increase riding height. How much can I extend it? Of course it has to fit, but are there any considerations about the linkage. Does there have to be a curtain amount of gap when it is fitted. Am I making any sence?

I've seen photoes on this forum of broken linkage and I don't want that to happen.
 
there is recommended lengths in the manual & Ive gone further than that by about 5mm as I like it with quick steering,I just had a few weave problems on fast corners over a ton:dowhat,but that was not to do with the shock
