Are they good for the street? Corners? Curvy roads with no body rolling?
Not so mushy as the Dodge shocks?

I can't complain about the ES9000 shocks at all. They've been an excellent
performance ON or OFF road. Not too stiff and not too mushy either. Check
around on the price though...shouldn't be more than $30/shock.

Hey guys and gals,
I'm sick of the MUSH like car ride and horrible body roll in my 4x4 Dak.
For
all I know these shocks are 106,000 mile originals. It needs shocks. I
like
a FIRM controlled ride, I want less body roll, and I want ledd diving when
braking, I wish I could get Monroe Gas Magnum truck shocks, they have the
firm valving I want, but alass they are discontinued, so I'm sol there. I'm
thinking the Explores Pro Comp ES9000 is my next best bet, and at $45 a
piece
I can afford them too. Looking for opinions!
