I would not leave a trap for someone . I was just saying how dangerous these lend type tools can be for large truck coils . In case you were not going to use quickstruts .

^ Well, your used shocks and struts are internally pressurized. Did you relieve those too? If so, describe the process.

I installed the rancho adjustable quick struts in the front. Easy job, look on youtube for install vids. rides so much better and you can adjust the ride firmness. put rancho adjustable shocks in the rear aswell.

Taildragger, is that right turn arrow in your avitar because you have to apply left rudder on take off?

No, you don't have to release the pressure. the suspension travel releases most of the pressure, when you jack up the truck and allow the suspension to drop.
Look on you tube, it's a pretty simple process.

Okay so I went with the monroes, finally installed them tonight. Went for a short drive, and I'm already impressed. Steering is tighter, handling better, ride is less harsh. No real complains, I'll add up receipts but I'm under 200 for all four corners. Got a deal on eBay for the front struts only. They were 90 shipped for two, and advance had rear shocks with coupon of 30 % they were like 60 for both. Overall very happy

Another option, I got my Monroe quick stuts on Rockauto. I don't remember the price, but it was very similar the the eBay prices.

Had mine in over a year. They're great.

Well mine were an auction bid on eBay. I just looked for a lot of 2 i paid $75.76+22.50 for shipping total of $99.25. This was the front struts ONLY, i reused my springs. The seller on eBay was "nps" they had other shocks listed in a similar auction type, but looking now I don't see them anymore.The rears shocks I paid $82.59 from advance for two with their 30% coupon TRT30. So total was $181.84 Not too bad IMO well worth it for the ride

Also if anyones interested in the Shock-tober event by monroe, They do not honor eBay auction purchases so you wont qualify for the rebate of 4 for the price of 3
