    Right now I have regular quick struts on my truck in the front and my rear shocks are really squeaky. About to replace them with a set of TRD bilstein shocks. Found a whole set for $40, would the TRD front struts be taller than the ones I have now? (I know this is probably a dumb question)

    Take those quick struts directly to the nearest dumpster! I put them on my wife's Camry, big mistake!
