There must be something on the internet about other shocks that will fit the LX as it is fairly common and has been around for years.

Failing that just remove a front and a rear and measure the length...I will try and find a thread on another forum that had a few measurements of various cars.

Also do your shocks have preload spacers or adjustable collars to add preload to the springs? If the springs are weak or saggy adding preload can be an easy way to make it work within reason....of course the oil in the shock absorber is there to control the spring and the spring is there to support the weight.
