Well installed the KYB shocks, but haven't driven yet. Too rainy lately. When I removed the Monroe shocks all four were shot. No charge at all. Now these shocks were very low mileage and the truck had been sitting for several years, but should they fail from sitting? The only issue I had installing the KYB was the bottom front mount on the truck. The shock bushing was wider than the opening so had to do some grinding to make it fit. Second set of Monroes on this truck, but never again.
