shock question

I am gathering parts for a 2005 Stumpjumper FSR Pro build (my first build) and need to know what size steertube is needed for the front shock. I'm looking at some used shocks that have been cut and don't want to purchase one that won't fit. Thanks in advance for your help.

Size, as in the length of the steerer tube?
That's going to depend on the length of your frame's headtube (varies depending on the size), headset stack height, stem clamp size, and number of spacers you might want to use.
