If you have U-PULL junkyard that would be your best. If you have no existing system if you find a truck that has a complete system you could snag everything off of it. Sort of one stop shopping

Default just remember

just remember your Dakota is a 1998 so stick with the years 1996 to 1999 to find the corect parts for your year Dakota thay changed the A/C around 2000 you dont want anything after 2000 it will not work in your Dak.

To pull you will need some special tools to disconect the lines like these

2000 should work. 2001+ is the problem, they went electric on the actuators.

I'd personally stick to a '98 if you can though. It just makes it that much easier.

Most u-pulls should have an "interchange manual" to tell you what will/won't work.
