Surly Cross Check skewer replacement length

I am trying to replace the skewer's on my cross check to a non-quick release set up. I have a fairly simple question I need some help with.

Can I replace my skewers with standard 100/130mm bolt on skewers or does the cross check size differently because of its semi horizontal rear drop outs.

These are the type of skewers I was thinking about getting.

Thanks for the help.

You need 100/135 skewers (mtb size), since the stock rear hub is 135.
