Shock absorber problems anyone?
Last year I had a shock upper mount break off the frame taking out the rear axle brakes. I now have a shock severely bent along with its lower mount on the spring plate. The shocks are the Monroe 5550...

I just went through this last summer with our rig. The replacement shocks I bought the year before were too long and broke one upper mount and bent all the others. Shocks were bottomed out when installed. I installed them with the axles hanging when I rebushed the springs and replaced all the brakes, so I had no idea that is was a problem until I found a shock wedged between the tire and frame when backing into a site.
