Source for Front Shocks?

Looking thru the web for a front shock and can't find any?

I see several sources quote Monroe 31125 for the rear, but nothing for the front?

It's a '54 Hudson Jet.

Thanks again!

    Ken U-Tx @  It seems to me that I tried to use the stepdown shock on my Jet way back when, but it was too long.  I ended up using the front shocks for a Plymouth Volari and Dodge Aspen

    I bought front shocks for my 39 six from Albrights Vintage Coach.Paid $70 for both.

    I put Monroe 31176 shocks in my '54 Jet last year. Pretty easy install, and didn't have any problems with them. Got a pair off Amazon for $35 including shipping.
  • Thanks guys.  Joe - I just ordered front (2 Monroe 31176 for $24 shipped!) and rear shocks for the Jet.  Looking forward to installing them.

    Sounds great--you beat my price!!! Seemed like the fronts were much easier to install...had to crawl in the trunk to get those rear shocks out! Good luck, sure made a difference in the ride with mine.

    first series Corvette 53-62  shocks work on  the front of stepdowns. You can then put performance shocks on if you wish. I put Edelbrock shocks on my 54. I don't know what will work on the rear.
