Default Shock confusion

The rancho 9000 shocks I have right now have these specs
FRONTS

Expanded 19.3 collapsed 11.92

The fox shocks that Superredrooster has and I want are these

BLUE,CADMIUM Extended Inches 31.1 Collapsed Inches 19.1 Reservoir Length Inches N/A
REAR

Rancho expanded 26 collapsed 15

And foxes

Extended length 15.75" and collapsed length 10.65"
Correct me if I'm wrong but these will not work for me correct?

I am just wanted to figure this all out and I have spent too much time on it and my brain hurts.


Thanks for all your help in advanced.

Ps shock mounting methods

Front lower is Eye ring and bushings top is stud

Rear both top and bottom are eye ring and bushings.

Does Fox not make a shock for your truck? Seems their website should have a direct replacement. I'd say you're right: those aren't even close.

Just realized something that might make a difference. His lift is not a crossmember drop. Coils and spindles. Think that is what makes the difference?
