Rear Shocks

[MunichDave]

Hello everyone, I have a question on rear shocks. I replaced my stock rear shocks with the Bilstein part number 24-187374.
I love the shocks as they ride and handle great! The issue I am having is the shocks must be a lot longer because now every time the truck is put on the lift my rear springs fall out of place. I didn't notice this until recently and I don't have the stock rear shocks to measure. Has anyone had a similar issue with this??? Would anyone be able to tell me the full extended length on the stock rear shocks?
I don't want to have to worry about my spring falling out of place every time it's put on the lift.
Thank you for any and all help. I appreciate it.

I don’t think the shock is strong enough to push it up. It should still sag regardless. you can probably put spring spacers in there to make up the difference. I’m sure they probably make whatever size you need just measure what gap you have.

What I found in another post on this forum is the stock shocks are 25.5 inches, measured center to center of the upper and lower shock bolt holes.

Is it possible that was not the part # that way installed and what sway bar endlinks do you have?
