I'm at the point i need new shocks for the 72. It had some monroes on it, they are HUGE. What are you leaf spring rear guys running? I won't be hauling much, and just a little bit of towing.

Thanks

I would just run a good gas shock from your local auto parts store.
(I've always like Monroe shocks)

Many on here think Bilstein shocks are the best!
