something interesting.....

so i pulled these off a truck chassis i picked up for cheap...it was a 67 shortbed and all the metal was far gone but the chassis was still in good shape, i got it from an old guy off his farm in jersey so i wouldn't think he would put something on a farm truck like this, did these come stock or are they aftermarket? i assume they are aftermarket..heres the pics

Re: something interesting.....

they are aftermarket... you can get them from autozone.. i think there around 80 bucks for the set.. they supposed to be helper shocks but they didnt really do much for my bronco.. gave me about 1 inch of lift tin the front and that was about it..
