    Nope they are all the same length cans, the shorter travel bumps just have spacers in them.

    Camburg long travel, full glass,
    Fox actually makes a stubby version of the bump which has a reduced length in the body and shaft, I believe it's 2.5" of travel. Ideally u would want more bump zone to reduce the effect of the bottoming out feeling but IMO 2" of hydro bump would still feel better then 0-1" of stock rubber bump.

    correct theres stubby versions out there . i would go with 2.5-3' stroke . you only want the bumpstops to be used at the last 1/4 of wheel travel .
    13"divided by 4 is 3.25. given that i wouldent use a 4". 3" would be perfect but most likely wouldn't work because of the tall can. so i feel a 2.5 stubby bumpstop would be perfect.
    the extra money spent on the jounce shock system would be worh it for many reasons. i think i know someone who has a brand new rear set in stock for around 550$ if your interested

    The 3" and 4" bodies are the same, the 2.5" travel one is actually shorter
