Sent ya a pm.

 

I'm in process of installing the Monroe 58650's on my truck. They weren't strapped closed (I didn't see any in the box) so I had a tough time compressing them. I still have the passenger side to do. You might be able to take a tow strap or tie down (that can handle 1200-1500+ work load) and tighten it down to compress the shock. I think you'd be able to allow the strap to slide on the top. I just used a 3.5 ton jack to compress and the wooden part of a hammer to line up the bolt on the driver's side.

 

HEY are these for a complete set?! i cant figure it out.. doesnt say if its only for 1 or a set of 2..

 

Monroe Load-Adjusting Shocks 58650, Are sold in Pairs (Rear)
I heard Monroe and Rancho are the owned by the same company.

I have the 58650 Install on my 05 Dakota
I forgot to measure the change in height before and after the swap. But it seems around a inch or so.




I have only towed a small trailer since I installed them, Have not hauled anything heavy either.

I did move a Cable Spool Trailer at my work, which was about 2500lbs on a pintle hitch, and the truck dropped about a inch


Edit: I compressed them into place with a floor jack, Pass side one was a pain tho

 

NICE! so far i have
Monroe rear load setup, superchips programmer, and husky liner custom floor mats all coming.

What exhaust guys?? are certain ones proven to add more hp? or not really.. such a wide range in prices.. cat back? or Right from the headers proven better?

 

I got the WeatherTech floor mats for $40. I did hear, and research the Husky ones are better, In that they cover under the pedals more. They go father up under the dash/behind pedals.
If they are the Custom fit ones that cover the entire floor area basically.

 

140 for the set of 2 fronts and one continuos one for the rear.. ive bought them for years and have loved husky. Ill post some pics.

 

I've had both mats. The Husky liner mats go up a little more than the Weathertech Digitalfit mats, especially in the left 'dead pedal' area.

The rear mat is practically the same on both sets. Plus both are Made in the USA.

 

Here is a thread with some video samples.
