89 Dakota 3.9 2WD. What brand/type shocks are you guys using? I have old school air shocks right now and they continually need to be aired up. Checked for leaks and none found.

I bought whatever was on sale at the local parts store. The bigger question is why do you need air shocks on a pickup? dakota

I have Monroe on all four corners of my Power Wagon, and I'm happy with them for the price. As asked, why air shocks? Are you towing?

Towing, but not for much longer.

Air shocks are awful unless towing, so if you can get by without them I'd say the Monroe are good value, but Bilstein are probably the best but big dollar. twocents

I currently upgraded it. Would love to know if anyone here also upgraded theirs.I just used the mopar brand, https://www.moparonlineparts.com/sku/p5155263.html, since it seems that's what the dealer recommended.
