Greetings all, i am in need of some out the box thinking here as i am out of boxes for thinking . i have these shocks photographed for something old and american, now i need a new pair, but cannot for the life of me find a shock off the shelf or from another car that matches, needs to be double bush and about 20" long open give or take. certain landrover ones could work but i fear they will be too long and no one displays the sort of info on shock length that i can see? all suggestions welcome, fingers crossed !  2AB7AD7A-CD3B-4989-9323-5E6399D603F1 by |

Just bang the part number off the shock into rockauto and I’ll be surprised if they don’t appear. Their part number cross reference is amazing.
They’ll also be the quickest and cheapest place to buy from.

I'd second RockAuto - they have EVERYTHING and generally pretty quick on shipping too. I have way too many of the fridge magnets they throw in with orders on my fridge  |
