I'm pretty sure it will. I have them installed in my SXT, and stiffened up the ride a noticable bit. @ $50ish each, it's not bad for the price.

Prevents rear wheel hop under hard braking at high speeds.

I recommend the Mopar Rear Tension Struts to anyone who is upgrading their suspension to be more aggressive and functional.

The Rear of my R/T slid less and hopped way less. Made for a more solid feel when entering and exiting a corner. Very much worth the 49$ they charge for them.

I bought some, but I haven't gotten around to putting them on yet. Now, I think this weekend is the time to do it.

Aren't these the one with a greater offset to allow for bigger tires too. Other wise just get poly kit and be one with it.

They still pivot in the same two points geometry is the same but are just clearanced for more tire room. They just have high durometer rubber or poly for bushings.
