my OME shocks are 25.8 open and 14.03 compressed. Can I put 25.750 open and 14.750 compressed on w/o having to make any mods?

On what vehicle?

You may have problems with the compressed length. Since it's losing 3/4" of up travel you'll have to cycle it to be sure that the axle hits the bumpstop before the shock bottoms out.

Wow, sorry about that. On the Escape08
I'll have it completely finished once i get the rear shocks..Would i be able to go bigger? Doestch make pretty much every size except what I need.. I lack understanding or am totally complicating this. I did a lot of exterior mods, rock sliders, bumpers etc.. but suspension I don't get.
