What do you hope to accomplish with air shocks?

What brand/part number do you have?

Sometimes free things cost too much.

I doubt they even fit, much less add anything.

I got free springs and shocks and wheel spacers and sway bar links and bumpers from a jeep, but that did not mean they would work. Worth a shot, but I bet you find it better to sell them and buy something known to fit.

Good Luck
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.
