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...

Getting ready to install shocks on my rig. Does anyone know if it really makes any difference which direction the shocks angle from the center equalizer? Due to disc brake calipers, I need to mount them on the front of each assembly so from right side it would look like this: / ^ / . I see most mounted like this: \ ^ / OR / ^ \ . Does it really make any difference? I know that for the best performance that the shocks should be mounted perpendicular, however, due to space that is not possible on most trailer applications. Thanks.
