Guess I will look at other brands or just hope the 3.75" of compressive is enough with the ones I have.
Try looking at Bilstines, Allshocks.com or truckspring.com

I cant believe I'm gonna say this but if you go to the actual Fox shocks webpage they have a bunch of different sizes too, keep in mind my Fox shocks were specially valved for BDS and BDS only has "X" amount of sizes available with there valving for their kits. I considered going that route.
