love the way the truck sits. i have a 91 d150 with a 318. i was going to build it to go fast, but change my mind, just want for looks. i'm still going to some engine like cam, intake manifold, 600 carb small stuff like that. i'm going put air-ride on it. my A518 is going to have the TCI rebuild and the rear end is already done with 4.11 gear. these truck are just bad ***. there are to many older fords and chevys running around and to many dodge. picture of your truck pretty sweet, keep it up.

I have an 84 2wd. How did you lower yours? I don't want to cut springs cuz I don't want to give up the little ride quality I have. I'm having a hard time finding parts. Rear is no prob. Just front is giving me fits.

Western Chassis drop spindles for an 80's Dakota, 2" drop will bolt up, SO I'VE READ. You can use the 94-2002 drop springs. A 3" drop spring for a 94-2002 Ram will equal 2" drop in your truck, due to the difference in springs length.
