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.

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

Also, are MOOGS a recommended brand for struts?
