You have to be careful when reading descriptions. I have seen some say "all" Then in tiny print "except 4000 lb axle"

The damage you have is from using shocks meant for a gasser.

Well I ordered s new pair of shocks today. Hopefully I'll be back in business. I inspected the mounts today and it looks as if everything will be ok

After having problems getting the right parts I just order all suspension parts as a 350 instead of the 250. It has really cut down on the number of wrong parts.

Well got the new Monroe shocks in and they fit great. The body on the Monroe's are about 4" longer than the ranchos.
