Default Suspension/Plugs

Im looking into lifting soon but the finances aren't ready yet.. So i need to replace the factory shocks for now and wanted to know which ones to go with.. I heard a lot about a few different ones but I need my "dodge family's" opinion on it.... I also need to change out the plugs and I heard we could run the NGK's but I don't know if those are the best for our trucks or what... Any advice would be HIGHLY appreciated because Im completely lost at the moment...lol.. Thanks

As far as shocks I am a big fan of Bilstein. For spark plugs DO NOT waist your money on platinums or Irridiums. The Hemi engine does not like the high end plugs. Just get some basic copper plugs by NGK or Champion. 2 bucks a piece...

Check out the FAQ section. All of these questions are covered in there...

and help yourself out when changing the plugs and lift up the front of the truck to change the rear plugs by going through the fender.....it'll be much easier........champions are the way to go on plugs.....as for shocks, to each their own on this i guess, but i'd go with bilstein more then likely
