The Ford Barn

We have a 32 with no rear shocks. We do have shock on hand but no rear arms only a spare set of front arms.
My question is are Model A and 32 rear shock arms the same?? Or close enough.

The rear '32 shock arm is shown in the lower right corner of the photo below.

Thanks David , I did see this in your great book.
So are Model A arms the same or similar? No I dont have any A arms either but thought they may be easier to find.

I'm unsure enough about the Model A arms to know better than to venture a guess. I'm sure that someone on the Model A side of the 'barn' could provide a photo and perhaps the overall length. For sure the opening for the shank of the shock absorber is the same.

The 1932 parts book show the "A" rear shock arm as A-18052-B and the "B" rear
arm as B-18052 but the 1937 parts book shows B-18052 for 1928-32.
