Have you poked around some shock makers websites? some of them have application guides... or you can pick make, year, model, etc... if that doesn't work, most of them have customer service toll free numbers... some of them even have a email addy for 'will this work' questions. http://www.summitracing.com <- poke around there, it might give you soem ideas. -W | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 734 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 734 | '67 is the same. You can also tell them '66 C20 instead of 30. They're the same.

I'm doing the same thing, little body work, little paint, trying to get ready to drive to Paso Robles on Memorial weekend.
Hope the shocks work out.

If not in stock they can order and have them over-night at a decent price. If need I can get them and then mail them to you!!!! | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Slow Rider, I checked in the Monroe catalog, there in not a listing for '63-'66 c-30. However, there is a listing for '67-72. It is
part #37158. You might also try Sears for Monroe,
then it would be part #83623.
