15 1/4 inches, just happen to have one laying close by Thanks ARB/OME!! :lol:
of course that means nothing due to you can have say that OME 927 that measures 15 1/4 inches and then another one that measures the same but if it is only 275/300 lbs compared to the 400 for the 927 then the heighth you end up with will be different. spring rate makes a huge difference after you get them on a vehicle. Not sure if that was where you were going with the question but.........

927's are 394 MM's @ 400#'s
926's are 392 mm's @ 375#'s
925's are 385 mm's @ 375#'s
All are 16mm bar diameter
Inches aren't precise enough to tell the difference if you're trying to identify a coil. Use mm's.

Thanks a lot, guys.
The importance of length is that you can have more extension of the strut ( if the shock is longer too ). I mean, you keep the down suspension travel.
That means that the NS131 have a longer extended length than stock front shocks as they are designed to be used with the stock upper plates...am I wrong?
