I really need a 67 and 68 parts book to do better. Anyone have a P&A 30 for sale for any years between 60-68?

3192814 is not in the 65-70 or the 65-73 parts history. Nor is it in the P&A price schedule for 46-75. So it is either an assembly line shock or it could be a front since the other number is a rear. Fronts were sometimes listed under one part number for the box that contained a different stamped shock. Does either of them have a two letter code sticker?

The number is in the 68-70 usage timeframe, but GM changed shock numbers during this time frame like changing socks.

I hope this helps,
Greg
