    The Gaz-A-Just ones I fitted (which are a direct replacement for stock on a bus) are 290mm / 410mm

    Thanks for the info .

    My van measures 300mm eye to eye without my fat ass on board after lowering.

    Think I need to find a more suitable shock then as the originals only will give me 10- 30mm before they bottom out. Glad the front seats are bouncy....
