Do you have a photo of what they look like on your truck? I'm thinking about getting some as well and just want to see what it looks like.
Thanks, Marty

just remeber that the shakles have a left and a right. also you will need a 55 mm torx to get them off. and seeing how you waited so long to do this you might be better off getting new bolts for the job. you may need to break off the factory ones do to road grime.
