Dont install them upside down. Lol unless you want the *** end to ride like a pogo stick!

 

Lmao, what happend buddy?

 

Well i put them on yesterday, everything was good. Drive to work today and its like no dampening happening bouncing all over the road and major wheel hop. I get to work and push on the back of the truck and its all spring

 

Well sh!+ happens. At least you didn't hurt anything!

 

They must be crappy shocks, never an issue with bilstien or anything similar. Oh well, if anyone runs them put the rod "up" not down

 

I don't think that's because you installed them upside down. Sounds like you blew them out because they are too long for your application. I did that to 2 sets of shocks after I lowered my truck.

 

No ****? I never checked the part number but its possible. I did have to compress them quite a bit. I'll check it out! Ive had the mcgs in there for a year and were fine but I have belltechs up front and wanted to match. They appeared to be the same length ( they also look identical) the only dif was I put the rod down.

 

If they are blown after 1 day, im sending them back and the 1/2" lift shackles. They def DO NOT fit an 08 even tho it says they do.

 

I think they're crap. My drop struts ride like hammered dammit. Also just recently learned that my rear Street performance shocks have a busted bushing.

 

I think all the companies use the same ones. I flipped them today and everythings good! Someday Id love to do a full coil overs/watts link etc.
