I nstalled the Monroes 17361's they raised my frontend by 2 or 3", I'm not a happy camper.
The measurement at center of fender is 36"!
Gotta figure out a way to lower it now��

Are you 2wd? You installed the 4wd version (171361) which are longer. If that's the case, take those out and get the correct part for the 2wd quickstruts which would be 171362.

Either that or install some taller blocks in the rear or add a leaf.

Where'd you buy? Maybe they can swap them for you?

I hate to bring up an old thread, but what website is the screenshot from?

Also, are MOOGS a recommended brand for struts?
