If it helps at all, I took the following measurements when I was putting my XB9S back to stock.

Stock XB9S Shock (the Blue spring one)measures 14-1/16 inches center-to-center of the mounting eyes.

XB SCG or Lightning Low Shock (the yellow spring one)measures 13-1/4 inches center-to-center of the mounting eyes.
