    Monroe load leveling shocks

    My question, does the stock replacement add any lift, or is it a different part number?

    do they make a front shock to go with the rear? like what sthe monroe shock to go with the rear? i suppose you could run the load leveler in the rear and a jba/rustys strut spacer in the front

    They don't make a shock that raises the front. The rear are designed to help when loaded/towing by using an integrated coil spring. This also helps with sagging issues (why I installed them).

    Thanks for the info, another question is there any adjustment in the coil overs on the shocks? Im worried it will be too high in the rear and my extra 1/2" spacer in the front wont make up for it.....

    Edit: right now im sitting @ 34.75" in front and 35.25" rear with just the daystar lift.

    No, they're not adjustable. Look at the pics in the link I posted. The stock replacements don't jack the back up that high...

    Just got them installed, I now have a clunk sound from the right rear, it makes noise when the spring/shock is unloaded, just wondering if what direction everyone put the "slot" in the top mount at? doubt it has anything to do with it but.... BTW i got about 1/2-3/4" front this.
