It's $90 for both. Can't beat that!

No doubt! I'll have to look into a set, Mine are getting weak at 83K

Hey bro getting ready to pull the trigger on the longer ones here just wanted to get some final feed back from you. Still happy with them? Still think the longer ones are the way to go? I can't wait until fall to get this done my rear dropped bad this last trip over the holiday and my front end felt light the entire trip to the beach and back. I have the shocks pulled up on amazon already so let me know bro.

Lets put it this way... if i was to order a set right now, it'd be the longer ones. I can't 100% guarantee that they'll work, but im pretty sure they will... Should probably consider some limiting straps as well if you're running rear discos.

Remember, during my gas tank install/mod I found that the spring begins to un-seat at an eye-to-eye length of 26.5" (if using a spacer lift... spring lift like OME would be different):



So being that the extended length of the longer Monroe's are 27.5", you may want to test them out at full flex in your driveway first to double check brake lines and to make sure your spring can't un-seat given your setup. I know if i was ordering them today, i'd also be ordering a set of 26.5" limiting straps since that extra inch would be enough for me to potentially lose a spring.

If I leave the rear sway bar connected I think I will be good for now what you think?

[Matt]

That's a good question... i dont think i ever measured my eye-to-eye length with the sway bar connected. The only time I did that was with the stock shocks and found out that the stock shocks will still max out with the sway bar connected; hence disconnecting the sway bar with the stock shocks really doesn't do much.
