They are the same in length. Most pre-gen shocks that are used will appear maybe a couple mm (like 2-3mm) shorter simply because they settled over time/use. Also the real reason that the new-gen shocks raise up the rear end of a pre-gen is because of the stiffer spring and thicker fluid. It's just a much stronger shock and doesn't sag like the pre-gens do.
