Ya I was worried the 1/2 ton axles wouldn't hold up.just for the fact I climb alot of hills play and the mudd and alway am pulling stuff or have the truck loaded down with something.but that's good knees that they should hold up.
I was just looking to replace the front and rear axle but trying to keep the same stock set up just with 3/4 ton diffs so keeping indipendant suspension up front but looks like I wount have to.

There is no front axle to upgrade to while keeping the IFS. So if you did want to upgrade the front axle your only choice is solid axle swap. Or custom axle but that will be expensive, ($3,000-up). But on the rear you can upgrade to any axle. It is up to you what kind. The best is a 9.25 from a 97-up Dakota or Durango. Keep in mind a full size truck axle will widen the width (Not to bad though). And may need welding for shocks mounts or spring perches.
But like I said these axles can take anything you throw at it. Trust me! Just as long as your ring and pinion and everything is setup correctly and in good shape.

and if all else fails im getting an old cummins and doing a body swap so my dakota is sitting on a 1 ton frame. nothing to special about it but its nore or less the cheap way out of trying to put a cummins in to the dakota frame.
