Default An Early Christmas Present

A friend is moving to WY and is flying out.
I have been blessed.
He gave me his 1997 Dakota club cab 4x4.
It in great shape with 94k miles.
Just in time for the snow.

When I get the chance the running boards will be removed.
And I'll have to add front mud guards.
It was given, free and clear.
He has a friend in WY with $ so getting another truck is not an issue.
I need to figure the towing capabilities.
I have the service manuals, brochure and owners manuals.
Not it's time to find how this truck was put together.
