Default banshee shocks vs 250r shocks

Been looking at possibly putting front banshee shocks on a 250r. Does anyone happen to know the differance in length? I am pretty sure the banshee has shorter shocks. I'd measure mine but they are 2 hours away at the moment.

if your trying to lower it then a shee shock might work... but a shee shock eyelets are pretty thick where a R shock isn't.. if youir looking to replace your shocks with other shocks and keep the same height.. then 400ex and IIRC 450R shocks swap onto a 250R

Here's what i was up to: I have a set of elka standard travel shocks on my banshee, and was looking into upgrading them, So I would have that set of shocks to eitheir sell or see about putting on the 250r. Sounds like the differance is enough it would not be worth putting them on the 250r.
Ive got a set of 400ex shocks but I dont like how the quad acts with those, too stiff.
