Default I have a of Q. to ask a 1990 dakota

Hi everyone, i'm new here and been snoobing around here for a week. And this forum has alot of info. I'm picking up a 1990 dodge dakota 4x4 in acouple of weeks from a freind for cheap. Was looking for a lift for the suspen. and all i can find, is for 91-96 dakota's will they fit the 1990 w/ out any problems. When i get the truck i'll take some pics of it. Any help would be nice and thank u.

The '91-'96 lift parts should fit your '90, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Check out this site. He installed a kit on a early year dakota. He talks about what he had to change.

suspension is the same 87-91 and 92-96, it was mostly body metal and fuel injection (engine) that was different. i will always say extra leafs or leaf helpers in the back are a better way to go than blocks. check out the picture of mine. i got the lift i want and i could go around a corner at 60 mph like it was not there. it did not drive much rougher than stock.
