I restored the truck, it's the last detail. I don't know who put the fleet side bed on but they did a good job stretching the frame, it's straight and looks factory, it's the only reason I went with it. I would rather had a short bed but not interested in shorting the frame again and finding a bed.

If you have any idea's on how to determine the problem I would be great full/

most shock manufacturers have pages like in this link. I used Monroe just as an example. you will find pictures and the codes that correspond to them at the end. this gives you the codes to understand all of the listings and what to look for in your application. just google your manufacturer of choice though some may not have this

their listing use to be much simpler to find things
