Exclamation TN - WTB Drop Shocks (67-72)

Anybody got an old set laying around from a suspension mod or upgrade?

These are not for my current project, just need something for the driver.

It's for "Merlot" need F & R, drop is around a 5/7? since it is air bagged.

Re: TN - WTB Drop Shocks (67-72)

What is the difference in 67-72 and 73-87 ?
I have a new pair that I ordered for the 78 but they are too short for what I need . I am going to check the part number to see what the application shows .

F.monroe,
If Luv passes and they will fit I might be interested. You sold me those rally wheels and tires awhile back. Let me know.

Re: TN - WTB Drop Shocks (67-72)

Front shocks will be the same application for 67-72 and 73-87. Rear will be different.

Re: TN - WTB Drop Shocks (67-72)

I checked them and they are Doetsch Tech 4095G . 11.65" compressed and 18.5" extended . There is an application for 65-72 trucks rear 5 inch drop . I bought them a year ago when I bought the drop for myu tan truckbut didnt install them because the upper studs didnt come with the shocks . My shocks were original and had the upper mounting stud pressed into the shock . I just never got around to buying the studs , If your shocks arent original , they probably have the stud already . I will let them go for $60 shipped . Let me know .

Re: TN - WTB Drop Shocks (67-72)

Monroe,

I'm sure that they are worth it, but I was hoping to spend
under $100 for 4 and that is for just 2. So I will pass, TY.

F. Monroe,
Did you sell these? I am still interested, just didn't want to jump in front of anyone.
