6cylindersovertexas,

Thanks for the information. Here is Gabriel's product application link:

http://www.gabriel.com/ProductFinder.aspx?action=AS

Make: Chevrolet or GMC
Model: Truck
Year: select a year between 1950/1953 (CHevrolet/GMC) and 1960

It looks like the same shock (81270) was used on all 1/2 ton Chevrolet trucks between 1950 and 1955-1st.

Does anyone have links for other vendor's cross-lists?

Tim
