My Info. shows a 1934 1/2 ton did not come with shocks unless it was a Deluxe model or a panel truck. They came with single acting shocks. Double acting shocks were an option/accessory for all.
The single acting has resistance one way only (lever coming down) and the double had resistance in both directions.
