Hello All!!

I have been lurking around here and it looks like I can get some good info from all of you.

First Question. I have a new to me 99 Dakota Sport Club Cab2wd with the 3.9/AT combo. What tires do you recommend? I live where it does snow and I have been looking at the Yokos Geolander in a 245/70/16size(just bought some 03 wheels). What do you recommend and why?

Second. Any particular first mods?

Thanks!!

Chris

PS Here is what I paid 200 bones for(had a blown motor, bought a junkyard motor for 500 and so far so good....fingers crossed)

welcome to the forum. sounds like you got a really good deal on the truck. you shoulda dropped a V8 in it since it already had a blown motor but you could add a CAI on it. thats as much as I would do to a V6

 

Welcome! Nice truck. Bump up the wheel size to 16" or 17" to get better tires sizes and not as much sidewall. I bought 16" stockers off the net for cheap.

 

15" will have more sizes avalable, go with Nokian tires IMO...

 

Thanks!!!

I thought it was a bit more difficult than a simple swap. Dont I have to upgrade the trans, wiring harness and computer? [sm=smiley1.gif]

Yes I bought the same wheels you have on your truck, 16". But mine is a 4x2 Just trying to get some ideas on a good all around tire.
