thank you
I don't have a set of calipers to measure them with, sorry. I had them leftover from my old SCRT10 and put them side by side to the AE shocks before I built the truck. The fronts are damn near the same length and the rears were a bit longer. But with the rears the result you get is similar to everybody unscrewing the shock eyelet three turns; more length. If anybody feels the rear droops too much due to the length, some limiters could be added inside the shock body, but so far I haven't had any issues. Under compression, both front and rear can bottom out the chassis, plus a few millimeters, which is the way it was setup with the stock shocks.
