says... yep have them on my 96 2500 4x4. smoooooth ride. pain to install. they are strong. dont cut the tie straps before installing. bushings are oversized and a pain to get into the cleaves or mounts. i had one blow the oil out. they sent me a new one. i paid for it returned the old one and they credited the money back. this was a year or two after installing them. it was the front right shock. last week the left front did the same thing. im waiting for the new one to arrive. there is a huge difference with just that one shock out of action. truck bounces all over the place on that corner though the others try and absorb it. they really are a good shock. theyve been on since sept 2001. what a date eh john my trucks going to be getting a bunch of servicing done soon front rotors and pads tranny fluid change etc and maybe then maybe a few months later shocks. it all depends if i keep it or not. i might trade it its been a decent truck but a car would be easier to deal with right now for various reasons. bdk .

you do not need one if you have the right technology to monitor/record engine data via obd2 port which all vehicles have had since 97 some a year sooner btw it reports the absolute manifold pressure atmosheric plus boost which the ecm use for fuel mixture control in that regard its amp is a little over 37 psi. so you are saying that a dealer not only let you test drive a new truck but let you hook up an obd2 scanner to it while you were driving it highly unlikely! honestly i place little value in wheel options on any brands web site. i look at trucks as they sit on lots ans as they are equipped in various trim/option levels. myself i have never had any interest at all in fancy rim options on my trucks a plain steel wheels is fine for me. ----------------- thesnoman.com well maybe besides learning how to slow down a bit when you type so you are missing letters unless the cryptic typing is purposeful you should learn how to pay more attention to things when you are test driving them .
