Got the shocks yesterday via UPS. What a PITA it was to change them the front had to be cut off and the rear were not to bad. The shocks that i pulled off from the front were so toasted that i compressed them completely and they did not spring back at all . I cannot belive the improvement in my truck since i put on the new shocks its liek i bought a new truck.

 

That's how my fronts were I compressed them by hand. It took me a while to get my bilsteins on It just required a buddy to help push them in and keep them on the right track while I jacked it up.
