I was thinking of these to lift the front of my bronco a little bit and to help with the handling. Did these lift the front on your trucks ? thanks

If you have a bronco II it might lift it but fullsize it won't it was actually short for my truck and I've got a 2" lift

I installed these along with a new set of springs, in which my truck was lifted but I don't believe the shocks would have did this on their own. I installed the shocks for the additional load bearing in use with a light weight snow plow. Hope this helps.

no as a matter of fact the shots aren't even made for the front of a vehiclelike ours I think they are intended for use on carsand they're also not intended to lift the vehicle just to stabilize it

No they didn't actually lift anything but they are a loadbearing shock. I was thinking the same thing you are when I got them. I ended up getting cargo springs to pick the front end up. But they have been good shocks.

Yes, they did lift it just a bit. I think it was mostly because my springs had sagged a bit and these compensated for that. In fact, it seems like that was one of the advertised benefits of these shocks. I put them on both the front and the rear; which made my Bronco handle better. The only down side was that the truck rode rougher.

Yes, I installed them on a 1 ton Ford 4x4 pickup which I use to haul a 14k RV.I've had no problems either hauling the RV or just using the pickup for transportation.

I just bought them for the front. They were junk yard shocks so they lasted for 2 months then they were junk again.

I pull a boat with heavy tounge weight. I don't have them tightened up all the way cause I only want help when towing. It does. I would put more pressure on them from start for you.i like them they do work. They kind of rattle on bumps. If you don't mind that. I would get the more costly ones with rubber silencers. I wish I would have. Should help. You can adjust how much help by tightening nuts more. Thanks

you need to get the ones for a four inch lift, or they will not have enough rebound. They are great shocks, mine are for three inch lift, check application chart.

If you have a 9" body lift yes they will. If you have a suspention lift you need shocks that match the amount you lifted the truck.

Blistein makes a shock for the front with up to two inches of lift . These are only for rear and you don't have to use them

I would not recommend these for anything that can move such as a trailer. This works best on a very stationary lift. Otherwise it can easily flip out from under what it is holding with terrible consequences. I've seen that happen twice already with mine. You'd think we would learn. This is a powerful jack and works great when used very carefully and under the right circumstances. Lifting a vehicle or trailer would be a very bad idea!!

No problem to get on these ramps backing up. I put my 07' Dodge Ram Quad Cab 1500 truck on a set backwards, several times, to support the rear of my truck. They worked great until I tried to lift the front of my truck on them, that is when the pair collapsed under my 1/2 ton pickup truck.

If you have the 5x5 bolt pattern yes. I used these without a lift in oversize tires and had rubbing in reverse. Now I have 3" of lift and no rubbing.

I have a F250 superduty and haul a ultra tanker cab over camper (Artic Fox 10.5'). With my trailer I weighed in at 13.500lbs!These will put your be up to where you are without a load easily and will stop your sway from side to side when making corners.They are a must for me. I think they would be great for you also.

Yes mine did...and the ones I got work well. They lift the trunk by themselves once you release the trunk. They are strong though, so It takes some effort to close the trunk once fully open.

I bought these and they do work for my 2wd jeep the only thing to note is that this much lift is gonna make you need a longer drive shaft. the added height is gonna make your car vibrate if the drive shaft is too short.

i am not sure, i got these for my 86 full sized Bronco and they are perfect for it. Sorry i cannot help you

As I recall I had to extend to lifts a bit.. very little. If they are a bit short then extending them a bit should be no problem. But.. just a guess.

I installed a set on a 2008 Toyota Tundra and it did lift the back of my truck about two inches - I never measured but it was noticeable.

not stock, they are a high lift and will raise the back of your truck 2 to 3 full inches. You would have to use them in pairs to be even.
