If you want Rancho's, jump onto the 4WD1 website.
They have all the specs for Rancho in a chart.
Just measure your extended and compressed lengths.
Make sure you check the mounting style. (ring, pin etc... sorry don't know cruisers)
If in doubt call them before ordering.
I've run Rancho 9000XL's for a couple of years now, from 4WD1 and I reckon they're a great shock for the $$$ and you can get them in just about any size...

Hmmm, ive been there and done it, you dont need 6" lifts in a 60 but it looks good.
Go out in the field and flex it up as hard as it will go and measure the compressed and relaxed lengths.
Jacking it up wont give you a true measurement.
