Shock absorber lengths

[scumdog]

OK guys, I'm depending on you here, I need a pair of new shocks for the rear of my '66 Town Landau and need to know the lengths of the shocks compressed and extended, presently the rear-end 'chatters' and 'skips' on tight rough corners - that bad I almost need to correct by turning opposite lock..

I know I COULD buy a pair from the good 'ol US of A but I have a contact in NZ that can get me a suitable set for slightly less than the US price (USA items equal to $110NZ) if I can supply the measurements and whether they have eyes or pins at each length. (plus then there's no freight included in the price).

Can you help??

C'mon guys - SOMEBODY must know the dimensions - or be able to tell me where I can find them myself.

shock length

If you can get a hold of an old monroe shock catalogue, the dimensions are posted for each part number in the back of the catalogue. They give you compressed and extended lengths and the type of mounting on each end. Good luck!!

Opps sorry, I was going to pull one for you and check it... forgot all about it, spent the weekend with my son working on his 65 Tbird.
