what is the difference between shocks on a 2003 then on a 2004?

here is a link i want rough country shocks for my 2004 but they dont have them??

any suggestions?

 

Well, I dont know, but I dont like how the Rancho's I got fit up front. It didnt seem 100% right...Anyway, go to an autozone, pull both sets( obviously oem) and see if there is a diff. ? thats all I could think of.
Most of what Ive found is 03 and 04 are the same suspension/brake-wise...'04 just didnt get labeled as compatable for whatever reason. I blame the durango body change.

 

yeah it doesn't make sense, i know differed intake manifolds but shocks? i highly doubt the shock mounts are different

 

I had this exact same problem. Nothing is labeled with 2004 it all cuts off at 2003. there no way they changed the suspension for one year only

 

i am having the hardest time finding shocks for my truck, they are either extremely expensive like the rancho 9000s, and i am not the richest man ever so i dont wanna spend that much money on shocks right now, or they have really low end street shocks and thats not what i want. i was thinking rancho 5000s ? but idk how good they are

 

didnt you have pro comp es9000 on the old dak? thoes are the ones i have and like.

 

yeah but i dont even see them for this ill keep looking

 

I cant really say im ecstatic with the 9000s. I prob wouldnt spend it again. Big motivator was free MyRide system. Which is a PITA. Anyway, with lift, dont you need 'custom' shocks anyway? Unless you just have body and torsion...just a thought I had.

If you find a set for '03, I'd put money on them fitting. I can get measurements if you want em.

 

Im thinking its a mistake since the durango changed in 2004. Dont know what else could be different.

 

how can you not be happy with the es9000's???? they are very stiff, but thats what you want in an offroad shock.
