Normally if the are stock they would be rusty, have NO adjustment holes in the shackle, be around 4-6" long.

If you can post up a photo maybe someone could tell you. Mine is 99 and I don't know if they are the same or not.

Other alternative is to download parts manual in the FAQ/DIY section, find the part number, and someone can check if theirs has the same part number and then measure theirs.

Longer shackles will lower the truck. Stock ones were pretty fair sized....
