Thanks, yeah I love my Dodge Trucks, the chrome dramatically changes the look.
And I havent leveled it yet, running low on money at the moment, just paid $200 to have the stupid looking "splash" decals put on the truck because I had to replace my passenger door and fender, and they dont make the kit anymore, so I had to have a whole new kit made in red.
The Rear actually has 1-Ton helpers and sits a little higher in the back than stock. (previous owner owned a crane company, this truck has held its share of heavy crap haha)
The only modding I had to do with the S10 baja bar was take a hammer to the wheel wells (mounts to the floor at all four points), but they were pretty screwed up to start with so I didnt mind.
The Roll bar that was in my 1992 bolted perfectly to the top of the wheel wells and then the floor closer to the cab, that didnt take any mods at all.
I love my push bar as well, being how hard it is to find one for a dakota, and that I've never seen another factory one like it.

haha wow im still getting used to the 2wd part. Forgot all about the difference in axles. Thanks haha. But I've been looking into a lot of different things, but to be honest never have been much interested in body lifts, dont like the gap you get, or having to lengthen various parts and connectors.
pretty much, if I can't do it for around $200, Ill just keep the 235's on it. The big money goes into my Ram haha
