Stupid shock questions

Rock auto shows these Gabriel numbers for the front of your truck...

71544
72332
80489
50680
70140

I don't see either of those numbers listed unless auto zone has there own numbering...

That wollered out hole you pictured isn't helping either...

Edit: apparently those are all old part numbers, going through the Gabriel catalog gives different numbers than those an includes the two you listed...

This is what I just installed is autozone supplying the wrong parts??

You must be registered for see images

97 GMC C1500
L31, M30, G80, GT4

No check my edit, rock is clearing out old stock probably with older part numbers

When your tightening these are you holding the top of the stud so it doesn't rotate? I think if you just let it spin you can possibly unhook the shaft from the piston...

Get us a picture of them installed now before driving on them. How long does it take for them to pull through or destroy the bushings?

Any update on this? Part numbers as well that you ended up with? I am about to go through the same thing and wanting to lift soon so I am very interested in what happened with you please.
