If they have the ProComp ES9000's available, i'd HIGHLY recommend them. I
use my 2WD as a "PreRunner" occasionally (really abusive offroad...heheheh)
and the ProComps hold up. Blew out a set of Raunchy RS5000's (Rancho) about
a year ago by just launching the truck...they should've held up...but they
didn't. (Plus, Rancho has a really bad return/replacement policy.)

Subject: Re: DML: Shocks for 2000 4.7 4x4
Hey, Me too. I blew out my stockers about a month
ago. (note to self: 4X4 dakota not a prerunner). I
have yet to replace the shocks, I will do it if and
when I lift the dak. When comparing the '00-01 models
to the '97-'99, the shocks look identical. Only
difference is the steering arm is different. just
from looking at it anyways. I have heard good things
about the pro comp 9000s, my friend runs them on his
chevy. my $.02
