that link to ur shocks takes me to

ERROR 404. . .page not found.

i did get to the Monroe page and found part # 58643.

is this what ur talking about?


the airbags i put on my Ranger did a great job of lifting the truck back to level. they did nothing to help with increased leaning with increased weight.
so the truck began to feel top heavy. i found that VERY unsettling. that is why i didn't like them.

and they took a lot longer than 1/2 an hour to install.

Did you install your airbags with individual fill fittings or did you tee them together? Teeing together will make a loaded truck lean worse. As you turn, the outside bag becomes more heavily compressed and pushes its air to the other side (already the high side) and jacks it up even more. They should be plumbed independently of each other.

I run a tee, with no issues of lean control but I guess my trailer is really centered having a 1000 lb attic blower front and centre in the trailer. I remember doing the install 4 years ago and the instructions said 45min to install and Believe I beat that by a couple min, I round down . I also switched to 10 ply tires and that made the handling better, but the ride is very hard.
