58 F100 with front mono leafs, What shocks? Last part I need to drive.

I bought the reversed eye mono leafs from Sacramento Vintage Ford. I also bought the shocks and shackle kit. The shocks are on back order and they have no idea when they are gonna be back in stock. I need these to get it on the road. Does anybody have any idea what shocks to run or a part number. ???????????? I am starting to get frustrated. And when I call SacVintage they refuse to give me any vendor info so I can buy the shocks from somewhere else.. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

This is for a 3 or 4" drop axle in front and flipped axle in the back.

Might need to check this, but All Monroe shock#
Front shocks Ext=14" and Col=9.75" <---- #5826
Back shocks Ext=18.5" and Col=12" <---- #58568 or #32126

 

I have a flip in the rear as well and the 4 inch mono leaf drop in the front.. So you think these shocks will work. Meaning the numbers you gave? Thanks

 

Or relocated the front stock upper mount up 3 inches and use stock shocks.

 

My stock shocks are junk and need them replaced anyways. So I mise and well get the lowering ones. I just cant find the part number from the front and SacVintage is no help.

 

I used rear shocks for gran torino..im guessing late 60's..my parts guy at orielys suggested them and they worked great..dont have pn though.

 

Meaning you used the rear shocks of a Torino on the front of your F100 or on the rear?

 

yep...on the front. Worked good

 

I work at a Napa, I'll look up the part number @ Work and shoot you a text, chief.

 

Grab a tape measure and see if the extended/collapsed measurements fit your application. If you do the leg work and find a set that fits it will be far less expensive with better selection of brands then if you just order whatever Sac Vintage has put together in their package
You need to measure to insure the shock will fit before you spend your $

 

Tim, let me know what ya find out.. My buddy that is doing the wiring is the Manager at the one here in Oregon City. I get a KILLER discount. Shit, I still owe ya $25 dont I?

 

+ 1 on measuring. Then you can run what ever you want as long as it mearsures out correctly.
