Default Shock length?

Does anyone know the length (compression/extension) of the factory front shocks? Or even shocks for 0-2 inch lift? I am getting a Bilstein number of BE5-6681-H8 or 0-2 inch lift, but can't find the specs on them. Thanks!

http://www.bilsteinus.com/about-bilstein/contact.html I had the hardest time finding the ext/col/ numbers also on bilstein shocks, I think I looked up another brand and went off thiers as a reference . I called bilstein in Ca? ask for a shane <?? tell em what you got and they will give you the ext/col lengths , i just remember it was a PITA to find those numbers ,or go to summitracing.com type in your vehicle click on bilstein shocks and click aplication, will tell ya what it fits.

I'm really just looking for the specs of the stock shock. I have some extra shocks (SKyjacker and Bilstein) laying around from other projects and I want to see if I can make them work on the Dodge.

Edit: Summit has the Rancho RS5221 has having 14.5 compressed and 23.6 extended.

They're in Poway, CA which is about 20 min from me. Give them a call, they will know the length.
