I installed them on my 2003 Express Van AWD. The rear is now about 1 inch higher, but the van is primarily used for towing a trailer. With these shocks, the van now tows MUCH BETTER. With the trailer attached, the van is now roughly level. I have a feeling the van should have been fitted with these shocks from the factory. Even without a trailer, the van still drives better. The ride isn't harsh/hard without towing. I can only recommend these shock absorbers.
