Bet you've never seen shocks this bad!
I just changed my shocks out on my 94 B4000 because the old ones looked like THIS: :mind-blow
notice how they're all at different heights just sitting there...I could push them all down and they would stay where they were.
On one of them, there was actually a hole worn through the shock body and was leaking oil...both rear shocks were crumbling like cookies in my hand as I was taking them off!
There's no need to say that my new Monroe Sensatracs feel MUCH better! :thumbsup:

oh yeah the bottom of my passenger door on my 98 is starting to make its way over to the paint on the bottom.
this new truck Im rustproofing just like my dad did his other vehicles, he has all the wands and special **** to spray it and when he does it he goes all out takes all the interior panels off and sprayed inside and such and on the bottom cleans everything off first then sprays the undercoating.
His friend has a 03 ranger and its his work truck and he doesnt wash it or anything which is sad but after 4 cleveland winters of not washing there isnt a single spec of rust on the thing. Thats because my dad rustproofed it.

The back is easy the front isnt to hard either its basically jacking up the truck removing the bolts and the shock itself replacing and bolting ti all back together.
What might fight you is the rust on the bolts getting it off lol.
It was a ***** putting my drop shocks on the back though had the rearend jacked all the way up and still wouldnt go on as if it was to short lol.
