Longer shocks for Baja Box Truck

[dentedvw]

I'm going to install a simple set of lift blocks out back to help keep me from dragging ass in rocks and washes. Does anyone know of some off the shelf longer shocks?
5/8 loops top and bottom
Current compressed 15.6, extended 24.6

There will be no Kelderman on this truck.
I do have some remote res Fox shocks needing a rebuild, they might be able to be repurposed.
But ideally I just grab something and put it on and don't think about it for a long time. Ages ago I could go to a local parts warehouse and tell them my requirements and a greasy dude looked through a catalog and pulled some off a shelf. But those days seem long gone. How do I do this now?

I think I solved it! Typing this out got me thinking about tailoring a search for a chart. Then I searched for eye size, and from there I scanned extended and compressed lengths.
Looks like a Monroe 34791 might fit the bill. I think they are F series front shocks from the mid nineties.

I could be wrong, but adding blocks doesn't necessarily mean you need longer shocks. The shocks will extend by the same amount as the added block height, so they will still be the correct length when the axle hits the bump stops. Running a longer shock may cause premature bottom out if the bumps are not extended.

At least thats how it is on my F150 where the bump stops hit the axle tube.
