been there done that even went to a specialty suspension shop anything they look up is wrong. Is there anyone with a 93 w-250 if so can you look at your front lower shock mount and describe. Mine has solid probable 3/4 inch bolt going through mount and shock.

On the lower end mine has a stud that looks to be about 1/2" (fine threads) going through the shock and about 3/4" (fine threads) going through the frame mount. Same on my '92.

Did yours come factory with air shocks? I believe mine are factory and I dont have a stud just a bolt. In the end I might have to change the lower shock mount however I would really like to know if this is original. My truck has alot of weird options.

Now you are asking tough questions. The shocks look like normal shocks to me (there are no air lines coming out or anything).
The build sheet for this truck says "SFB Front Heavy Duty Shock Absorbers". However, I just acquired the truck so I don't know if those are original shocks or not.
