The Merc would use the same shock as the Ford in late 47-48. A good parts house should be able to look at the mounting points and check the extended and compressed lengths and come up with a shock that will fit.The Ford part # is 7RC-18125-A. You might try a Napa store as they carry a lot of early parts. You might also call C and G Parts at 1-800-266-0470, they have the shocks in stock.

That is a bigger job than the fronts because the rear hubs and drums have to come off to install the lower brackets. C&G has them (800/266-0470). Part # 11A-18125-KIT. Catalog says $212.95. Good quality never comes cheap.
