Yes, please tell me that they fix the "blown strut" feeling that the stock ones give you.

Yeah, me too. It's almost scary when you're going around a corner on the highway and hit a bump. The front end starts to jump on you and the back end trys to follow it. I think when I order them I will also get the 2 inch spacers so that I can do it all at once.

Those look like they would do the trick. I see a conflict though in the adds, part of it says exc quad cab and the other says its for the quad cab? Also it says for standard suspension, I have the TRX but don't know if there is a diff in shock design. Dodge says the TRX has an increased ride height, but I don't see it.
If you get them please give us a write up..

yeah, would they fit the 2wd or not? Is the front suspension different on the 4wd? You know I have to say the same thing, I saw a TRX4 next to a normal 2wd dakota at the dealer, and, honestly, I didn't see a difference.
