The motors *are* the same! Chrysler PowerTech 3.7L V6. Used in Dakotas, Raiders, Liberties, Grand Cherokees, Nitros, Durangos and Ram 1500's.

There is *no* difference in the underpinnings of a Dakota and a Raider. They were built in the same factories. Lift off the bodies and you won't be able to tell the difference. So if the mod in question is for the powertrain or chassis, the answer is probably "yes". If the mod is for the body or cosmetics, the answer is probably "no" or "with grinding".

That is why you use fiber glass and some bondo

A strip of fiberglass, slap a glob of bondo on there, it'll look totally factory.

No, I mean, I think they are too big, is what I think I remember...

and no matter the amount of work you do, I think they will look tacky on a raider...
