I'm lucky too when it comes to a JY.. there is one 4 miles down the road from me and they have 3 dodge rams that are in pretty good condition that they are parting out... when I hit the deer this summer I got a front bumper, fan shroud, oil dip stick for like $125 with delivery haha and I just picked up an 8' scraper blade for $106.. and those are like $600-$800 new! I love JY's!

Geno's Garage now has a replacement dashboard:
98-02: http://www.genosgarage.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DRD8-1
94-97: http://www.genosgarage.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DRD4-7
But it only comes in black, and for that price, I'd be getting a new one from Mopar that is color-matched.
EDIT:
New Mopar dashboards are only $306 from Mopar.biz

the earlier style dash boards like your and mine are fine the defective crap ones are the later 98-01 dashes...

Well, lots of factors go into why your dash is not cracked or cracked. Interior color, tinted windows, garage kept, amount dash was cleaned, etc...

but it seems the ones that all fall apart are usually the later 2nd gen style ones....po's beat the hell out of my interior but the dash is perfect...except the ****ty cup holders that dont hold cups upright ...I poured a whole cup of coffee on my jeans today while using the truck for service calls today...(vans making bad bearing noises like waterpump failed)

Windows are mildly tinted.
Dash was hardly ever cleaned.
And i wonder if the cup holders from the older models will fit in our model?

they sell an aftermarket cup holder for our truck on ebay that looks oen that mounts onto the front of the center consol...they are like $50 but look worth it...
