by any chance would you be able to jack the front end up and get me a measurement of the front shocks center of eye to eye on a full extension. i have a 2016 but i have noticed the 2017 comes with a varible rate spring and is preload adjustable and i am thinking to buy them for my 2016 p500 just want to make sure they are not shorter because they have lowered the ride height by 1 inch

I did purchase the 2017 chocks for my 2016 P500 for the front only and yes it did lower the front by one inch bot I reset the preload and I got my inch back and my front suspension dosent bottom out as much.

I've got a new set in the box, but not sure measuring them not installed would be of any help.
