I checked the part #'s and it turned out they were trying to put A body
shocks on my 62 B body Dodge Dart wagon. It seems no matter how
hard I try to explain how the 62's are the bigger body Dart, my effort falls
on deaf ears. no surprise there eh... (o:
Actually front shocks for A/B/E-bodies (60-76 A's, 62-72 B's, and
70-74 E's) all share the same dimensions. Monroe & Gabriel, which have been OE replacement shock manufacturers from the git-go, share the same pn# & shock between all A/B/E-bodies. rear shocks are different, mostly due to their compressed and extended lengths.
I've had KYB's, various Monroe shocks, and various Gabriel's. all
gave very good rides on the street. the KYB's are stiffer, no doubt.
Monroe & Gabriel's are about $17ea, KYBs are $35ea, Mopar Performance are just under $40ea. (which I bet are manufactured by either Monroe or Gabriel), and the Edelbrock's are $70ea. For me, budget
dictates which options are truly options. I liked the KYBs but
I've been happy with Monroe's & Gabriel's as well... I haven't had the
cash to try the Edelbrock's yet...
