I was able to significantly stiffen up the ride on my '01 4x4 by going with
some BFG A/T KOs and Trailmaster Invader N7 shocks all the way around. The
tires alone made a big difference compared to the OEM Goodyears. The shocks
made a big difference too, they came with urethane bushings. As far as
tires and shocks go, I think anything would be an improvement over OEM
equipment.

Subject: DML: Hotchkis sway bars on a 4x4?

After spending quite a bit of time on the highway with the Dak this past
week on long runs, I've decided that things are too mushy for me. 2 ways
to fix it - better sway bars and better shocks.

Is there a Hotchkis (or other) sway bar kit that will bolt right onto my
'99 4x4? I have the Tire & Handling package which has front & rear sways,
but the rear isn't much more than a coat hanger. About what would that kit
cost, and where would I get it from?

Shocks I'll do some more thinking about before I post on those.
