[QUOTE="Todd Z, post: 1045554, member: 58941"] ok, Its dealing with suspensions.. They are struts, Not shocks..... you will need a compressor and huge torque wrench... some bolts are 183 ft lbs... you also must know how to set the truck to ride height to torque everything or you will blow out bushings..... The Monroe pre packaged struts WILL raise the truck 1 inch. don't know about the cheaper ones..... Buying the parts, ( Top mount, isolator, strut and bushings) will cost the same as the pre packaged and require more labor changing the spring from old to new. Its a huge question of your mechanical skills, tools ( 24 MM and larger sockets) and what you can handle... [/QUOTE]
