[oletrucks] Shocks

["Antonio R. Tijerino" <antonio@innercite.com>]

I have a  question about shocks. I took the shocks our of my '53 truck,
other than just being dirty, how do I know (once they are out) that need
replacement?
These are Monroe Magnun 34824, I tried to buy these type but the guy at
the counter said that they don't make Magnuns anymore, they only have
sensa-trac, which according to the guy at the FLAPS are similar.
Are theses the same?

Thanks,

Antonio
