Bilstein

<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><tr><td style="width: 100px; overflow: hidden;" valign="top">

</td> <td style="width: 500px;" valign="top"> 46mm Monotube Shock Absorber
(F4-B46-1325) MSRP: $132.00 Bilstein B6 Heavy Duty monotube gas pressure shocks and struts are the ideal choice for most vehicles, including full-size sedans, SUVs and trucks. These shocks provide improved handling and stability, without sacrificing ride comfort. They offer super damping ability that makes them ideal for the driver who demands superior performance, while maintaining an exceptional street ride. (yellow paint, steel body)
  • Position: Front
  • Setting: B6 Heavy Duty (HD)

This says Econoline, and It I recall, mine has the pin type on top and bottom, so I am not 100% these will fit.

I had some Rancho's that were eye on each end. I made some adapters and used them anyway. I didn't hack up the original mounts so I can go back to pin type if needed.
