If the rod end is not coming close to the body of the shock. Then I would still remove the shock and cycle it to see if your assumptions are correct. There may be a manufacturing flaw in one of them and you could get it replaced. It shouldn't take too long to remove it and see if your guess about the shock is right or wrong. Shocks will typically compress almost the entire way into the body.

Have the stock spring spacers still in place along with the stock bumpstops. There is only about an inch gap between the bumpstops, thus causing my suspension to bumpstop out quickly. So I took out the teraflex bumpstops to see if anything changed, just caused the shocks to deaden out before the stock bumpstops.

Do you think there is a chance that they sent me short shocks? I don't know how that would be possible.

Rear shocks are only 1-1.5" of shock shaft showing. Which obviously is wrong. Front however is like 6" but deadens out after about 2" of travel. I cannot pull them tonight, but will shortly.

Yes, by jumping on my bumpers. And yes, the springs are def. stiff.
