I had a early 70s Chevy that had a pair of Monroe air shocks out back. It helped when I had the car loaded with weight... kinda like helper springs. I stayed within the fill pressure limits and never had any problems with them. I think Monroe has Air-Maxs now. Check out the Monroe application site, http://www.monroe.com/catalog_lookup...iscappinfo.asp. They have a link (http://www.monroe.com/pdf/ShockAbsor...sionCharts.pdf) that has a PDF chart with the dimensions for their Air-Max offerings. Maybe it'll help you find your mounting application and 'lowered' lengths.
