    Delco Air Lift shocks are still available for your car. Same part number shock is used as the service shock for the full-size wagons all the way through 1996.

    They cost about double the price of a conventional shock.
    RockAuto has them currently listed for about $77 (I can't tell if that is the price per shock or for a pair)

    ACDELCO Part # 504516 {#88946603} Air Adjustable; Sold in Pairs
    Rear; Station Wagon; Base Model
    $76.79

    Thanks JMT!
    They're not as much as I was expecting.

    Probably quite a bit of interchangability between your Safari and mine.

    I'm curious of one thing...
    My Di-Noc woodgrain looks OK on the outer surfaces, but is cracking around the door handle recesses, and well as the parts that wrap around the door edges. How's yours in those areas?

    :Welcome:Hattrick. If I may make one suggestion. Put that beauty back in hibernation long about Halloween every year and keep it there 'til after Easter. Can't believe your long roof looks that clean bein' from the Wolverine. Take My suggestion and it'll look that good for your kidz and their kidz too:tiphat:Jer

    Krash Kadillac, There is a little shrinkage at the lighter wood surround trim by the door handles and a little piece missing by the tailgate door. There's also a few scratches by the door lock cylinder where the key missed, otherwise I think it looks pretty darn good.

    Oh how I wish I did, and could convince my DW of that:cry: Just today we were chatting about cars and what we have and I got the "strong nudge" that the Safari is expected to be back on the road yet this summer and once that is done then maybe...........

    I understand the rules of this thread and the cake wagon needs a new home.
    Look me up in the classifieds.
    Thanks
