3 inch spacers are too much for these trucks. You'll end up ruining all of your front end components. Have any pics of your severe angles?

Ok have a 2005 Crewcab 2wd. Installed Monroe 58642 Load Adjusting Shocks (58642) and Strut complete with spring 181362 for the front. I have 99600 on the odometer and the shocks were shot. I got everything on Amazon for $275 shipped and hope they will honor $75 rebate. So far good. I tow a 28 foot travel trailer and will see what happens. Already replaced the front ball joints and upper control arms. All were easy to replace, not bad for an old man.

Ok just took on a road trip with trailer. thumbs up for the new Monroe shocks. The rear shocks with helper springs are a little stiff, but should settle down after a while.
