I'm not 100% sure, but I don't believe that the dual shocks came with a snow plow option, instead I think they are part of an off-road package. They aren't rare on a 4x4, but on a Flareside, they might be.

Full off road on an XLT platform included : quad shocks, twin sway bars front and back, transfer case cover and front skid plate.

I have them on my '90 shortbed. Does this indicate an option similar to z-71 or 4x4 offroad in todays terminology? I do have a rear sway bar but ain't looked for a front one...

I didnt mean snow plow package, i ment it was set up so it could handle a plow, id never put a plow on my truck any ways, too much stress to it. I do have the XLT package and the skid plate and such, os that must be why i have that set up, also a 4x4 to add to the fact
