K-10 Shocks - 68 vs 69?

I need to buy shocks for the "Money Pit". All the books say 69-80something for shocks nad 67-68 for others. What would be different on my 68 to have a different model #? I have an 82 front axle under it but the shock mounts are the same as my 68. Any suggestions and what shock do I want without going broke? This truck won't be seeing any hard-core off roading and has no lift....

Thanks
Mike

I used the cheapest hydraulic shock from OK 4WD center in Jersey. They were Skyjackers and i had them the next day. So far, so good... No lift on my truck either.
