These are low-end shocks, but they work, and they're consistent. I bought a pair of Monroe - garbage. I swapped them with a pair of Gabriels - even worse than the Monroe shocks! Gabriel and Monroe shocks are like snowflakes - no two shocks are ever identical. They're filled, valved, and charged differently. I put in a pair of Gabriel shocks, and my truck hopped across the road when I went around a turn with a small bump - very dangerous. With the Monroe shocks, one wheel kept bouncing - which is bad for tires, other suspension parts, bearings, and safety. Again, these KYB's are a cheap shock, but the pair was matched, and the ride is acceptable. For how long? I'll let you know.

Great ride quality in these shocks!!! I put a set of Gabriel shocks on my Dakota first. Hated them!! I bought these two weeks later for my truck. Love them. The ride is right for a 2003 Dakota regular cab 4x4.

I’ve got 223k+ miles on my 2004 Dodge Dakota 4x4. I like these KYB Excel-G gas shocks better than any others I’ve had on this truck and the price.These KYB Excel-G gas shocks seem to respond to changing road conditions for a lot smoother, comfortable ride than the previous heavy duty Gabriels I had on it for normal driving conditions and dirt trails come hunting season. These new shocks paired with new Trailfinder All Terrain tires seems to have restored the ride close to the Dakota’s original capabilities. I’m happy with the ride, not too stiff. I’d recommend these all the way around for a comfortable ride.

Actually used these on a Chevy TrailBlazer with some minor adaptation. Excellent ride on and off road, very happy with the purchase. Not too firm, not too soft, just right.For installing on a TrailBlazer, some washers are needed for the bottom bolt. Top bolt is an exact fit. Eye diameter is the same, 12mm. These shocks allow 2" of travel more than a stock TB, so I would also recommend rerouting the ABS lines so they don't stretch at full extension.
