Re: can our oem spiral shocks be rebuilt

I found a local guy that bought out a shock dealer... (ok he's kind of a hoarder)! Anyway, I've been trying to catch up with him for a while. He has several sets of NOS/NIB shocks. Is there a reasonable price for each?

Cash do you have the reference books to look up what the part numbers for the front and back shocks for a 70 1/2 ton delco spiral are. On flebay they have gone for 40-90 each that seems awful high to me I am thinking 70-75 a pair would be fair.

Sorry I do not... but need to look for one. Seems like I miss it every time I find one. He did the research on several of the new ones (supposedly) but, I haven't cross checked his numbers yet. They are for sure spiral and marked as our trucks. Hes hard to catch up with as well as an hour and a half away. I'll try again this weekend.
