skyjacker shocks

slightly OT favor to ask if you have (ever) had a dodge or can get me numbers...i am ordering my rear shocks for my truck tomorrow and my sis wants 4 of the skyjacker nitro 8000s for her 94 dodge ram 2500 cummins. it's 4wd although it doesn't currently work.

i think it's these: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SJA-N8017/ and http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SJA-N8091/ but i really have no idea...it looks to me like a lot of overlap!

p.s....i love how her truck's mods/improvements are following mine i put a 6637 in for her yesterday, and she loves it. pictures in a few days when i get done switching to my new computer

her 4wd might be not working bc of the hoses leading to the front hubs having a vacuum leak, a guy at my buddies shop got his cummins stuck because he pinched those lines off when putting his new tranny in somehow

and in all fairness, red's not such a bad truck. i like mine lots better, but we trade sometimes for kicks...and i must say i like the way the cummins sounds and drives. it helps she has no muffler and a sexy chrome tip on the exhaust
