Stock height is fine. Do you need to know that dimension? Also, did you get retainers? Stock retainers don't fit those springs correctly. Here's a post of mine showing stock retainers in those springs and the proper retainers.

1 11/16" is stock installed height if memory serves. Check your FSM. I'm seeing 1.65" for 340 replacement springs which is close. Retainers can come from same plave as the springs or you can pay more elsewhere.
