A few pointers to this specific story.
Unless you have air shocks/suspension, shock absorbers have no effect on ride height. If you know what you are doing, you don't have to remove parts (generally) to get part numbers.

I had this scam happen to me to in Utah. A couple of jokers from the gas station across the street from a restaurant where we were eating drove up to my vehicle in a golf cart all concerned saying I immediately needed new shocks to the tune of $1,200. (they happened to have them in stock) I drove over to the station and let them examine my vehicle. They gave me their best sales effort without success. I thanked them and drove on. Somehow we survived.
