Hi, I have a pair I could sell you, they are off a 1970 f100..

Are they needed? I haven't had those on my pickup since the mid 80's. :)
The shock prevents the axles from going too far down to let the spring unseat.
I've always seen them as something the factory needed, not me. {shrug}
Building a show truck? :)

i would put them back on.

They are too common a part for me to chance going without, but I see the point that logically they are not absolutely necessary.

Havin a hard time figurin out a way to disagree with any of that. ;)

yes it is hard to imagine that the springs would ever move out of the top mounts. but just in case a bump in the road or something . i would rather my truck have them in place just to stop them from a act of god or something.

batterzazu...thanks for the offer........i went to the local junk yard today....and there was a bump there and i got them off of it along with a couple suspension bumpers.... i appreciate the offer though

Alvin in AZ...no show truck here..an original paint 67 that's really weathered, but clean...fun combo

Cool. :)
..."weathered original paint" is my favorite look, no kidding. :)
