Default Lift

Where can I get a 4-6" lift for a 2004 dodge dakota? I have done some searching and I can't find an answer.

With a 4wd I know you can get a 5.5" tuff country lift.

Not for a 2004!

You can get all kinds of lifts for 97-99s, but when they switched to the rack/pinion steering the lifts don't work as well. Apparently there's an issue with the rack either being hard to relocate or the ends not being easy to remount. Not sure what the problem is, but Rancho has a 3" lift and that's about it for the 00-04's.

You could put the saginaw steering box in off a 97-99 and ditch the rack/pinion, then get one of the Tuff Country lifts. I'm not sure what else you'd need to swap though.
