Same purpose, different design.

Shoebox-Central would have those bottom brackets and the shocks you need. Very good people to deal with....Mark

Update: I purchased the bottom brackets from Shoebox Central (nice quality) and Gabriel shocks from Rock Auto ($16 each). Installed and all works very well!

Thanks again for your assistance!

I recommend shocks from a late 70's mid size vehicle.
