ok, i need to know if the 4x4 dak frame has any differences than the 2x4 frame.
mostly the front clip anyways.
im looking for a project frame and i want to know if the 4x4 has any differences. since the 2x4s are not as easy to find

 

yea the front ends are entirely different

 

well the suspension is getting fabbed anyways.
and i only really need the front half,

do you know if the control arms are longer at all?

 

probably are since the 4x4s and 4x2s have completely different suspension set up

 

oh, this isnt for a swap...
this is an entirely different animal...

are the 4x4 upper control arms mounted on the side of the framerail or on the top?

if so i'll have to stick with a 2by frame...
its ok, they're cheaper usually

 

umm never heard of a 2x4 dakota or at least i would drive a piece of dimensional lumber down the road


umm yea 4x4 and 4x2 are different ride height suspension build (at least the front end) and everything sorry to make your life difficult

 

no big deal,
i just cant find a schematic of the 4x2 to compare to the 4x4 one i have..
allpar is nothing but the 4x4 duur..

 

the main difference between the 2 frames are the 4x2 has a coil tower, the 4x4 doesnt, as for the control arm mounts on the 4x4, i believe they are on the side.

 

well, i'll be calling my local junkyard monday, they should still have that frame i got my bed off of, all im gonna need is the frame and cab, rolling anyways....

 

what's the project for?
