Air Shock ?

Where can I buy air shocks for 67-72 coil sring trucks? I had several parts stores tell me they don't list them, but yet they have them for a 66 model.

Re: Air Shock ?

The ones for 60-66 coil spring trucks should be the same for 67-72, right?

Re: Air Shock ?

I have a pair of Monroe Max-Air, model #MA727, brand new still in the original box withn the air line set, I was told that they are for 67-72 with rear coils. I bought them for my 4x4 with leafs but they are too short.
You can have them for $50.00 plus the shipping.

Re: Air Shock ?

Not trying to hijack the thread here but which shocks are better for lifting the rear up, air shocks or coil-overs? I'm guessing air shocks but I wasn't sure.
