    Hey guys first thread here, I have a couple of Monroe 32401 shocks that were going on a Dodge 2500. Well that truck was totaled before I got to install them so I was wondering if anyone has done it or if based on these specs think they would work got them on Amazon for almost nothing so it would be a quick cheap mod for me...

    Took these direct from Monroe website

    Don't have permission to view the link lol, thanks for the info though I might just pull one and compare visually next time I'm just sitting around the house. Yea it was just a work truck so I wasn't terribly worried about buying best quality but I think the onset on my Taco are factory original and have 320000 miles on them I know the leaf springs were changed and an extra leaf put in but I don't remember us swapping shocks out (truck has been in family since 01 at least). I just acquired it recently and am going to change all 4 out soon.

    How much you asking, also saw a rear spare tire mount on a '90 4runner I can get for cheap any thoughts about how it would look (I checked it and it functions smoothly)
