I don't know if this will help any,  but according to my Hollander Manual, the 58 Ford uses the same front shocks,  57-60 Ford 1/2 ton truck, and 62-66 Classics.

I pulled my records for my 64 Ambassador the front part number for gas shocks are 82069.

Not sure if they are the same for 66? The 63/ 64 has an odd lower control arm fastening point and might not have been carried forward.
