Tony
They are what you call "no name" air shocks made by gabriel. bought a NOS set off ebay $65 shipped but there are others who want $189.00 without the springs. They are great shocks.

Put the old girl on the truck June 27th. Kind of weird as I have not heard a single word! Not even ebay feedback! I guess no news is good news?
