Before the solid Motor mounts I would break them on a regular basis. I use grade 8 bolts on mine to minimize the chance of breaking another one.

The JBA headers are a direct replacement for the stock manifolds:

Blown287 is right on with using grade 8 bolts, I went with:

that s&cks, they don't fit an 05 Laramie, only the 06, only base and sport models for 05.

just going by the link, it only lists as fitting the following:

2005 DODGE DAKOTA BASE
2006 DODGE DAKOTA LARAMIE
2006 DODGE DAKOTA SLT
2006 DODGE DAKOTA ST

If I use the "shop by vehicle" thing on the left side of the screen, it only lists base and sport models of the 05 dakota.

I figure they do fit, but I hate it when these vendors can't list the truck models correctly. If I try to order it will tell me these are not compatible with my truck. Did you put yours on yourself?

Everything up front should be the same in base and Laramie models .... all that changed was some chrome and some trim; nothing in the drivetrain. If you buy them and they dont fit on your Laramie, Ill buy them off you.
