Front #82035 gabriel guardian $16.99
Rear #82086 gabriel guardian $16.99
I looked at all of my parts suppliers and auto zone is the only one to show shocks for your truck.
Ron is the man !!!!!

you may have to do it by measurement and mounting and this info is usually avail in the back of the cataloques and they are listed online but sometimes difficult to find.

Are you sure the shocks you have on the truck are the right ones ? I find it hard to believe that there is nothing available.Somebody has to be able to cross reference part numbers.
Have you tried calling Monroe direct,there site only goes back to 1967 ?
