Glenn: On my 56 it seems to me that the shocks were too short also with the body off. After the body was on with some load in it the shocks fit fine. I sat on the frame to get them to fit before setting the body on. I don't remember what shocks I am using. Something heavy duty out of a catalog. I had to repaint them black to look like the rest of the running gear. If anyone wants to crawl under my 56 to try to determine if I have correct shocks, they are more or a puirist than I am. In my limited experience I have never seen it done. I too could lift the rear of my 56 body with it sitting on a roll around dolly. The front was another matter. It took two people to lift it with difficulty. More sheet metal in the fire wall up front I guess. John Teske [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
