Nope...they only come with the nuts and bushings for the upper part.
You reuse the lower bolts.

Out of curiosity, do these procomps ship with their own bolts? I have
changed the front shocks on my 95 4wd DAK numerous time and am still
using what I assume to be the original bolt.... I assume this as the
the Gabriels, Gas-Ryders etc I stick under never come with lower shock
bolts that go into the lwoer A-arm.
