    Shock - Front 1934-1939 all. Generic Monroe number was J507
    Shock - Rear 1934-1954 all exc. Jet - Generic Monroe was J610

    Please note, these numbers are from the early 1980's catalog, so most likely have changed by now. However, any good parts store should have an updated interchange manual for current numbers.

    Assuming your '35 Hud takes the same shocks as my '34 Terra, the problem with all new shocks is that they have a larger ID bushing in the top loop end. The original mounting pins on my car are small diameter.

    In my case I refilled the originals with fresh oil, found some bushings from Lynn Steele and they have been fine for the last year (though used very little)
