Didn't have time to install, but will get to that hopefully tomorrow...
The shocks measure 15.5" compressed and 21.75" uncompressed using the method above. Please let me know how this compares to stock and Rancho shocks. thanks!

Just a humble thought from the new guy.
When you compare shocks from different manufacturers you may want to measure from the top of the shock body instead of including the threaded stud in your measurement. The same shock, for the same car, form two different manufacturers may have a very different length threaded stud on the end. So in essence, when you measure, you are gettting the compressed/extended(travel) measurement plus whatever the difference is between the two studs.
I found this to be true when comparing the stock shocks to the Bilstiens. The threaded stud on the stock shock was longer.
I hope this helps
