Is this a stock quad shock setup?

Recently bought an 87 V10 that I am in the process of fixing up. I bought a new set of shocks to install and noticed that the front quad shocks do not appear to stock. By that I mean if u look in the LMC catalogue at the mounting brackets for quad shocks, one is mounted lower that the other. This makes sense as the replacements I got for the front one shock is longer than the other.

After looking them over on the truck I am thinking that someone just threw another set on the front at one time, squeezing it next to the original. They obviously are 2 different shocks, but do appear to be equal length.

At this point I think I would be fine with eliminating the quads and just using the standard 2 setup. I wont be lifting, plowing, or doing much off road with it.

Any info or opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Scott
