01 SLT 4.7, By far the most expensive truck I have owned in terms of maintenance. But I love it so I just keep pouring $ into it.

Has a sweet stereo done, subs are in the box and it passes through into the cab. Insane setup, 2 Boston G3 12"s with 2 Boston GT24 1500w amps and 7.5" MBQuart mids in each door. Its an older system but sounds amazing.

Just bought this truck 3 days ago. Really like it. I've owned a 1st gen with a 318 V8 reg cab 5 speed, and a 3rd gen ext cab V6 auto. This 2nd gen is 2004 club cab V8 5 speed.

Default 04 Quad V6 5spd 4X4

She's at 167K, but she doesn't leak, miss, tick or knock. She wasn't cared for all that well and she's a little rough, but I'm changing that. I bought black grille to replace the only piece of chrome on her and I ordered a new U joint converted front prop shaft.

I have a 2000 Dodge Dakota sport. It’s all stock right now but I’m wanting to make it a project truck. I’m 19 and have had this truck since I was 16. It’s going to be a long process because I don’t have a lot of money. I’m hoping to lower it, wrap it, new wheels and tires, some interior work, and performance upgrades. I will need a lot of advice and help on the best things to get for the best money and also the best order to do the things in. The truck has the 4 speed automatic transmission with the 3.9L V6 Magnum motor in it. I bought the truck with around 93,000 miles on it and it now has just over 131,000. It has been an amazing truck for me and has been an even better first vehicle. I do have two 10” subs powered by a 1200 watt amp. One sub is a kicker comp s in a ported box and the second sub is a digital design in a ported box. Let’s just say they hit hard. Anyway I’ll post some pictures on it now and maybe y’all can help me on the best thing to save up for first.

Default My broken stuff...




Three year vinyl after 18 years

Moss thriving

More moss

😣

And the truck I built to tow it.
Original owner, 99r/t. It's been sitting broken for about 10 years. Starting to research wether to rebuild the 360-403, or try a hemi swap.

Default My first Dakota

My first Dakota. It’s a 1998 160k
I’ve had a Jeep with the 5.2 though.
It has a few things I need to address.
power steering line leaks a bit.
driveline sounds as if it need rear wheel bearings however the previous owner said they were changed recently.
I’ll get it up on jack stands tomorrow and have a look around.

Otherwise it is a very nice clean example.
garaged most of its life.
no clear coat issues.
Any comments or advice much appreciated!

Here is the 2000 i picked up.. just put 33's on it 3" body lift, torsion key lift 1.4" lift


Custom fit 6x8's sounds so much better than 6.75's
