Hi

You will need to take your shocks off and measure between the centre's of the bolt holes where they bolt to, this gives you central distance for shock travel, you can then look at your shock options.

The reason your stock shocks are leaking is they are not fit for the job and have been bottoming out which has caused them to rupture.

arch to ground level is a curiosity factor but will not help in choosing shocks.
