Default The official post up your dakota pic/mods thread

I don't see one, whatya say mods? Personally I want to see what my truck will look like with the TM and body lifts, new tires etc. All our trucks are basically the same so a thread like this will help us all. Hopefully someone will sticky this..

I have only had my truck for a couple months and have made a few long trips, love the thing.

2007 ST V6 in electric blue.

Mods:
Added Cruise Control (bout $50 and 5 minutes to do!)
Added Mopar tow wiring and hitch
TM kit is on order, and I signe up with TM to be a reseller so if ya want one contact me

I want new wheels bad but so far that is about it for mods unless you can count he magellan crossover GPS on the dash.

I'll put a new pic when I get around to taking one. This one is a 12' piece of sheetrock in the back, I'm loving the way the tailgate will stop half way.

Great idea Brandonmiller! I have been trying to figure out what my 2007 Dak QC would look like with a bull bar (and what kind of bar)and what kind of nerf/step bars would give it the best appearance. There are very few pics on the accessory sites that actually show their products on our trucks and I guess I am not good at visualizing...at least not at those prices if I am wrong!Along withthose pics, brand names and suppliers would be good too! Hope to see all those pictures soon!

Really nice looking Dakota, swheels! I like the looks of that bull bar! A question for ya...does that bull bar make contact with any part of your bumper? It doesn't look like it in your picbut my computer kinda cut the side view that showed the baralmost completely off the edge of my screen. I have a painted bumper so I am trying to avoid any rubbing on it. Did you do your own window tint? Been toying with that idea.

Thanks

it does not touch at all it unbolts the tow hoors and has brackets that atatch and the bar bolts to that. the brackets come out the tow hook slots and its about 1-2 inches away from the bumper
