Shocking Post!

Back on 1/18 I posted about the installation of some NOS BOGE shocks for the rear suspension.  This post is about the front shocks.  Again, these may be NOS, but hard to tell.  They are in very nice cosmetic condition, but before I install them I want to determine if there is any quantifiable test of the shock I can make.  There is resistance in both directions, but seems perhaps a bit light to the feel.  The true test is obviously how the car performs when installed, but it is a while before the first drive.  Bouncing the fender seems non-scientific, but many do that after an install.  
Anyway, photos below.  Same part number as I had on BOGE shocks on my last car.
