Shocks for 98 Dakota, 3" lift and 33's
 

Hi, purchased a 98 Dakota SLT with 5.2. It has a 3" lift and 33" Mud tires. Truck is awesome....but shocks are totally rusted out. They work, but the outsides are half gone from rot!

Not sure what size shock I need. Any idea what I should be looking for since the ones on the truck are undescribable...lol....If you can read through rust, i'll take a pic

Thanks in advance.

If its a 3" body lift(guessing it is) just get stock size shocks....if its a suspension lift you'll def need to go with something longer

What do thw shocks look like? They stock or are they aftermarket. Body lift or suspension lift?

Sorry, I never got back....

I have pics of the front and rear shocks...look like different ones. and I think it 's a 3" suspension lift from what I can see.

One somewhat identifiable shock in the rear says sensatrac....

Thanks.

how did you get 3 inches out of the front end without hitting bumpstops?

No idea. I just bought it that way lol. I'm not familiar with lifts. I'll take more front end pics.

thanks im interested. im sitting tight to bump stops atm.

Rough country makes a good shock. I still have stock but im going with Monroe reflex possibly

Rancho also sells shocks for your lift, mine sits the same just put rears on waiting to purchase fronts part numbers are RS5010 FOR REAR.......RS 5136 FOR FRONTS..FOR 3 INCH LIFTED TRUCKS..ONE STEP OVER STOCK..COMES WITH HARDWARE FOR DIFFERENT SHOCK BRACKETS..ADVANCE AUTO APPROX $58 A PIECE

how do you like the ranchos? I'm looking at getting those for my front end to start cause it needs it the worst? Oreily's has them for the same price
