I am replacing my shocks, but i couldn't figure out which model number bilsteins to get. searched the forum but just couldn't figure out which model numbers to order for a bone stock 72 jimmy.

I had to replace the shocks so i got a a set of KYB (they didn't cost very much, i think i got a complete set for under $100).

if you find out the right model number of bilsteins for front and back i would be real interested! Someone told me it is important to not only get the length right but also to get the valving right for the bilsteins.
