Matt,

I had the ProComp ES9000's on my (lifted) '97 Dakota for almost two
years without any problems. I've even put the truck "in the air" a few
times (with the lift kit) and the shocks/bolts held up just fine. (And
I was using the factory mounting bolts as well.)

What type of bolts are the using? (They should be at least Grade-5)

- Bernd

I was wondering how many of you are running ES9000's from ProComp. I
just
took my truck into the shop for breaking the lower mounting bolts on the

front shocks. I have gone through 6 bolts in the past 4-5 months and the

first 10 months they were on with no problems at all. The shop tried to
tell me the shock was to strong for my truck, I tried to blow this off,
but
I wanted to ask the group to see how many people have them and if anyone

had any problems with them. Thanks in advance.
