    part numbers

    Can I ask pretty please if someone can give me the part number for standard boge oil shocks for a 93 that has had the air springs removed for coils?
    I don't know enough about it to know whether it matters or not about the springs...

    If you have kept the air shock mount, AFAIR you have to use air spec shocks as I think they are longer.

    If you have added coil shock mounts , where the shock goes down the middle of the spring then OK for coil shocks.

    Ahhh crap, I was going to get me some boge for my 93 since I did the conversion. It still has the air spec billies on it which is horrible. Are you talking about the fronts only? Can you you still squeeze the boges in?, air shocks are bad on coils. Might be time for the mighty hammer LOL

    I do not know. All I know is that there are different part number for OEM and also Armstrong have different numbers, and the air ones are quite a bit more expensive
    AFAIR there are different jounce /rebound damping requirements for air vs coil.
