Default Shocks: 2006 Dakota Quad Cab

I just called one of the online warehouses and they said there are no Bilstein shocks that fit an 06 Dakota quad. Is that right? Anyone know where I can get Bilstein or Rancho shocks for my truck?

Bilstein REAR

F4-BE5-6682-H6

That is the Bilstein part number for the rear shocks with a 1-2" lift in back.

They will be too long on trucks with no lift blocks in the rear.



You must make sure and get the correct hardware kit for these shocks. (smaller I.D. rubber bushings and steel insert)

For those who have been asking me by PM and Email-
My old PC crashed and I am still unable to get the numbers for the stock height truck (in the back)

Note: H6 is the newest part number. H5 is still the same shock

I thought there was something wrong with the truck before I read the reviews on this website, now I know the shocks just suck.
