Worst case I think you could slap something on from Napa and take your trip. It's not like a wheel bearing or broken spring. I drove around for a year with both OME shocks blown in the rear and you've been driving around with one snapped off...

Steve, just go to 4wheel parts with the shock in hand. There's a million different shocks that would work for your app. They just need to know the compressed and closed eye measurements.

I called SMB West and while they said what Seth pointed out above happened in a few instances, since mine are old?? (2005) they are not covered by a warranty and ARB Old Man Emu will not cover them. So I bought one. Hopefully get it tomorrow.
