I would not get the nitro drop shocks there are reports of harsh rides with them, I have the Sport performance shocks from that kit and they ride fine.

Yeah that is a good price for that kit.

I had nitro drop shocks on my '99 R/T. I would recommend them for the front, *engine is rather heavy* but just the sports for the back.

apparently this kit doesn't come with the shocks.... other than the shocks, what else should a kit include? the price seems "too good to be true"

I have a McGaughy kit and purchased the belltech shocks seperately. It was a little more expensive that way but it worked out well.

Belltech Performance Shocks > Nitro Drop IIs

Our engines are too heavy for the Nitros..they're too soft.
