Thanks, again,
 According to Gabriel, the G63398 shocks have been discontinued.
I also tried several sources on "The Web" which all said either unavailable or discontinued.
Anything else?

Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

Yes,this problem has come up before.. apparently a couple of manufacturers list shocks for mid 50's Fords..that are too short. On my 57 car the rears are Gabrials & are marginal for clearence. As I recall, I added a one or two xtra shock washers at the bottom, there was enough thread, & can get by.. In my opinion, Contlnental kits can be more of a pain than they're worth...

P.F,
"Contlnental kits can be more of a pain than they're worth... "  My 1st experience ...   if proves too much, I can always remove. I'll have to see how it goes.
Still looking for specific brand & model information for replacement shocks.
Thanks. JLB
