Question:
Before I pull the trigger, I want to make sure I am getting the best solution. I have a 2008 Dodge Dakota crew cab 4.7L 4x4. When I pull my trailer, I get a pretty good squat due to the tongue weight. This looks like the best solution minus bags to accomplish this: https://www.etrailer.com/Vehicle-Suspension/Dodge/Dakota/2008/SSA7MTKT.html?VehicleID=2008761603 With propane, cooler, trailer, etc…I am assuming around 400 pound tongue weight max. Thoughts on the best option? Thanks!

The best suspension enhancement we have for your 2008 Dodge Dakota is the RAS kit part # RAS4514 which gives you adjustable support, is easily installed, and unlike other options actually improves ride quality and handling while most options make it harsher.
