    Appreciate your answer,

    Can someone help me out with how to fit them shock´s.
    I´ve seen pictures of trucks in TW with the bottle on top (chassis mount) and also on the bottom.
    What is the correct way to mount them shocks.

    Thanks, Wille

    They are correct on the 2nd gen, it has a stem on the top mount and a bushing on the lower.. But some manufactures make the shock can down and some do can up, typically you mount a shock so you can read the writing on the shock.
