    I know it's not gonna fix it completely but I did go ahead and change out my shocks.

    The monroe i pulled off felt to have good compression but would get towards the bottom and then just all of a sudden collapse. Put some new kyb on tthere we will see if they help at all

    Well new shocks helped...still a bit of a rough ride...after inspecting the fronts...gonna replace those as well.

    This is why the tires cupped in the first place.

    New quick struts are in.

    Literally picked the truck up 1.25" in the front. Not only were the bushings gone the shocks were pouring oil. Can't wait to drive to work tomorrow and try it out.

    Still gotta do the transfer case front seal but waiting on a new nut to come in.
