Just pull a tape on the shocks with it sitting just like it is. That will give you an installed length. Most shocks have the part number stamped in the bottom tube to help figure out what you have now. When you look at new shocks you can use the length number you got to see if they will work. Going by the picture you have some drop in the front, maybe 2" and not to much in the rear.
