Help Identifying Shocks
 

1 Attachment(s)
Can anyone help identify the year for these shocks? I’m guessing mid 30’s. They have oil in them and the movement seems pretty good despite the heavy rust. I was hoping to clean them up and use them on my 31 pickup, but the arms seem too short for the back, and up front, the arms line up well, but the top of the shock interferes with the fender because the bolts aren’t offset from the center of the shock.

They look like Early V8 Ford. Post this on the V8 page and you will get an answer. 1932-1934, is my guess.

Look like 1934 Fronts. See the link to Vince's site.
