So how did it perform after the install?

Not sure where that comes from. You can bet Chrysler isn't going to put shocks that retail at $55 ea as OEM. Perhaps you'd be interested in some beach-front property in Wyoming.

The Reflex ride like s##t. The Sensa-Trac is what comes on the Ram truck from the factory. Monro makes them for chrysler but not on the SRT models. But I do like the way the Truck Magnum feel on the truck.

No offense, but you obviously have no idea of the difference between OEM and service parts. OEM's have purchasing power so the prices they pay are FAR less than the service parts you buy at parts stores. Service parts often cost 5x or morewhat OEM parts cost. When you commit to buy 2 million parts, you will get a huge price break.
Sorry for the off-topic post.

Greatly improved handling and cornering! All-4-tires planted firmly.. I also feel that it reduces strain on the joints and suspension, from the reduced body roll...

I ordered a factory rear swaybar. What are the chances that I won't have to drill any holes?
In the good ol' days, I pulled a swaybar off of a crashed Dodge Diplomat police car, and installed it in my '83 Mirada (the holes in the frame were already there). The improvement in handling was amazing. I look forward to this upgrade.

Hellwig Rear Swaybar Install
I installed a Hellwig swaybar for my Ram.
Some tips:
1. Make sure all the parts are in the box.
2. Remove the spare tire. You probably need the practice, and the extra room is very beneficial.
3. Install the frame plates first, to insure exhaust pipe clearance. If it doesn't clear, make sure you have a muffler shop that can help you out.
4. Install the axle mounts. From this point, you cannot drive the vehicle until the installation is complete. While installing this part, you might want an extra hand, it's like carrying a wet noodle.
5. I installed each lower link, and used my floor jack to compress to compress the bushings up. The bushings were my missing parts, and its my fault, for not doing an inventory. I used bushings, from an "end link kit", from a local auto parts store. Both ends of the end link are threaded. The wood block acted as a second wrench, while I installed the top bushings.
6. Take a photo to show the guys that you cut your exhaust pipes off.
It's really simple. I did the install by myself. If I had checked for all the parts, it would've been a two hour project. I had a good time and love the improvement in handling.
I hope the picture and explanation helps someone.
