Just picked up a 84 k10 shortbed to fix up, i got to looking and noticed that it has two front shocks per side. both brackets look factory (factory rivits mounting them to the frame). Ive never seen this on a half ton. ive had two 84's prior to this and all had a single shock. Any ideas on why this is on there? i searched and cant seem to find any answers.

i think thats part of the plow package,should have 3 front leafs.

common.

one is in the stock position and one is almost straight vertical.

Yeah Ive seen it too.

Let me guess its got headlights too.

Normal.... Seen it dozens of times...

And to add--- throw some chome shocks on that bitch :D

Towing package. My 90 burb has it.

yea, it has three front springs as well. well good now i know what it was for. thanks guys.

Dual shocks = quad shock option. Could be ordered stand alone or combined with other pkgs.

My truck had them. Took em off. 8 Rancho 5000s was too much.

Guys I walked outside today and looked up. I was absolutely flabbergasted by the brightness bestowed upon my delicate eyes. For the life of me I checked all throughout the house but all the switches were off. I seek all of your worldly knowledge. Wtf is that bright thing up there in the sky?

so what package would that be? Just a towing package? Its a custom Deluxe if that helps. Truck also has dual tanks.

Look in the glove box for the option codes sticker. Each 3 digit code is called an "RPO" code, search Google for "RPO codes" and you'll find everything you need to decode what options/pkgs are on your truck.

I have those brackets on my blazer it was a bitch fitting them to the d60...

that would be nice if the sticker was there, i tried to do it be the vin but that doesn't help.

the vin wont tell you much more than lwb/swb, 2wd/4wd, straight/v6/v8.

82 suburban i bought had it. just threw the extra shock out

if you really want to know, pm mj.
