The front you can get off of a 2500hd, the common # that people seem to find that works is a 15182094. As for the rear, you may be able to find one that fits but I have not heard or seen a common one. You can get yours shortened or get a new one made.

Look in the Stickies in this section, there is a 60E-80E sticky that has allot of great info.
