Tad,
I got the 440's as well and they do make a diference. But Alf or Nigel loctited the top bushings on the mounts and the stock shocks came off leaving the bushings and sleeves in place. I had to use a propane torch and a pair of channellocks to get those off which naturally destroyed the rubber bushings. Naturally, your results may vary...

Take care of the back.......
