shocks

I had bought shocks for a 67-72 chevy truck w/ leaf springs and ended up buying trailing arms for the coil spring suspension. Are the shocks the same or do I have to purchase new shocks?

I've looked up shock info in the past & found 'coil' applications w/a part number but not much for leaf apps. If the shocks were the same, the listing would indicate coil or leaf so I'm betting they're different.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
