I've looked at those myself. Too bad they're not available through normal channels here. Where did I see them... Rock Auto? The shipping was a deal-breaker for me. After closer inspection I found that the P.O. had replaced the shocks but neglected to re-install/replace the strike-out bumpers. So, I have new bumpers and boots sitting in the garage awaiting installation. One of these days I'll get caught up enough that I can toss them on and see if they cure my issue - LF tire rubbing the fender liner on long dips.

Oh, back to your question... ;-) I don't see why they wouldn't, the shock mounts and shocks are all the same, n'est-ce pas?
