yeah my truck is an slt so it has color matched (silver) bumpers i like the look of the black ones for sure. I may in the near future just spray them with black bed liner to give them that look and some added protecting

Does any one no the normal rake difference between the front and back of the truck of the stock 07 Dodge Dakota.. since I did not take measurements before I did my leveling kit and 2" blocks in the back.. The rake would be the height from the ground to the top lip of the fender well as seen in this picture, other then instead of going from the center of the wheel I just go to the ground.. I was just wondering if I should have used 1" 1/2 blocks instead of the 2" that or I asm just not used to the ride yet.. Cya Slick

You basically duplicated my install. Go to the dealer and ask them to install it for you. They will snap at least one of the struts taking it apart and have to warranty it which will make it cheaper. I ended up paying less in extra labor for putting the kit in than I would have for new struts.
Hendrixx, how were you trying to post the pictures and where are they hosted (photobucket, flickr, etc)?

flyboy...DT made the bumper himself. There are aftermarket sway bar links on rockauto.com (i think that's the site).
The only place I have seen that makes bumpers similar to DT's, is a place in GA called kennesaw mountain. Here is their website. I would advice you NOT to get the brush guard with it, as it looks completely ridiculous in their pictures.
