Default TRX4 Questions

Hey guys, I don't see many TRX4's around here, so I thought I'd ask a couple questions. When I try to build my own on the Dodge website, the only color it let's me pick when I select the hemi option is the silver, I assume that's an error? I would guess you could get any of the available colors with a hemi couldn't you?

Also, one of the items listed as part of the TRX4 package is Extra Rear Heavy Duty Shock Absorbers. What does that mean exactly? Does that mean that the rear end would be a little stiffer, and maybe when I'm towing I won't get as much rear end squat?

Otherwise the paint scheme is different, some skid plates and 17 inch wheels correct? Anything else I'm missing?

nope, you've pretty much covered it all. as for the color, i think it's a glitch in the build-you-own part of the website, i ran into the same thing when i was looking at getting my truck. all you have to do is go back to the color selection page and reset your color choice, then you're good to go.

So what's your take on the HD rear shocks? I'm hoping it might stiffen it up a bit to take some of the squat out that I have seen in my buddie's SLT. Is there a noticeable difference?

your coilsprings determine the amount of rear squat,heavy duty shocks will not change your ride height
