I'm sure this will suit my needs just fine. I want to lift my truck for more clearance on back roads and some mild off road stuff. If I want to go rock crawling I don't think I would want to use my Dakota and dent the crap out of it anyway. Like the kit or not, we are still farther ahead than we were a month ago.

My only concern is can the stock steering take the abuse of those giant tires?

why would you want a sway bar? lol

and im sorry if i offended anyone wether it be the owner of that truck or the fabricator.....

but that is some tossed up crap. you have only one bolt with a square tab that looks like it was cut out with an angle grinder holding the crossmember on. i give it a good bump and watch those 2 accentric slits go ripping off. and what spindles are those? if they are the factory spindles than holy camber change during suspension cycling. and you guys really couldnt just run true duals out each side of the truck....theres no set in stone rule that says the exhaust HAS to come back to that side. cmon now i made my crossmember in one night and i dont wanna toot my horn but it looks better than this one. did you just cut a V into the top so the t case fits?

and look at the coils....they are almost touching each other at ride height. that is diffidently no bueno...

props for getting the project started but there is some things i would have done a little different

I'm glad to see this is actually something in the works. Hopefully the finished product will be better than what you guys are seeing now. I'm glad to see any company providing aftermarket support for our trucks.

Well, the good news is that there is a lift kit, and perhaps it is not the best kit, but it IS something more than nothing.

Sure there are some severly needed refinements, and I hope when he said that it was fully tested, he was kidding, but yeah there is some thing that need to be redone a little.

Here is another pic
