Here is part 5.

 

Thats freakin awesome!
I learned the same two things. I don't think our 4x4 sus. was viper based though XD only 2wd so now im jealous.

Its interesting to about the exhaust manifolds to how difference in size they were, however headers are way better.

Keep us posted on this!

 

i knew that we can use viper brakes and stuff but not the same suspension. that is pretty sweet.

 

Im sure its not a simple bolt on tho right? As far the caliper. That would be sweet if it is that simple!

 

They left an email address to send them your Ideas.
scatdak@richardehrenberg.com I already emailed them. If anyone can email them maybe the can do more Dakota projects.

 

it is supposed to be a simple swap i think, cuz we have the same bolt patterns and stuff. just really expensize. i have seen kits for the newer dakotas so i dont see why we could not do it too!

 

they should do a 3.9 4bt diesel swap. it can be pretty cheap.

I gotta convert mine to a 91+ front end just for clearance issues.

 

Now Part 2 is avilible. I put Part 2 in the first post. Now I learned you can easly upgrade the 8 1/4. And 9 1/4 is stronger than the Famous Ford 9in, and the so called bullet proff 8 3/4. And I still dont understand why there is not a slectable locker for it.

 

is makes me really want to put some slicks on the 15's now!
