Lance cab struts

Iam wondering who has the lance cab over struts on a Dodge quad cab 2003-2009. I called Lance today and was told buy two people that lance doesn't have struts for a quad cab and the third person said a crew cab would work. I need to no which struts to order?

One is 20.5" long for a standard cab, I have these already way to short.
The second one is a 25.5" for a extended cab.
The third one is a 31.5" for a crew cab.

They are measuring just the black body of the strut not the overall length.

So who has what.

  • Thanks ck1 , that's one for the 31" strut. I have read that the 25.5" strut is what fits . Nice to no that a 31" will fit as well. Do you have any pictures , I would like to see wear it mounts in comparison to wear mine is mounted on my camper.

    I understand that some people say they work great and others think they are a waste of money. I never had them on my old truck, but that was a standard cab long bed. My new truck is a quad cab long bed, seams like I get more bounce in the cab area. Or it could just be these quality Wisconsin roads getting worse that we travel on.

    Any body else running Cab struts?

  • JMHO... I'd save my $$ for something else. I have cab struts for my F-350 dually Crew Cab. They've been stored under the back seat with easy access for over 200,000 miles all across the eastern half of the country. Do they work?... Yes, they help under certain circumstances. Off road?... No way! But I've "needed"/used them so infrequently on stretches of concrete highways that I can tell you precisely what road I was on when I last used them nearly 4 years ago. I suppose if I drove that road every day, my appreciation for the struts would be considerably elevated. But, I don't. YMMV
  • i have a 03 quad and I have the 31 inch struts...work great
