Default Question About LMC Truck Catalog

I have a new catalog from LMC for Dakota and Durango. For Dakota it says for 1997-06. Would these parts fit a 2007??? If 3rd gen is 2007 +, they should, Right?? (the parts listed for 2005-2006 that is)

3rd gen is 2005 and up, so don't count on anything that fits 2004 or earlier to fit a third gen. There are only a couple of second gen items of that could possibly fit. Anything listed for 2005 or 2006 will fit your 07 perfectly.

Agreed. They didn't really change the body style/engine until the 2008 model year.

Well when you find the parts you are looking for, post them back here, and everyone will help you find a better deal elsewhere.

That's what's good about this group...got each other's back. Next thing I will need is a set of quick struts. Rock Auto has for $163 each. I understand these aren't carried by a lot of places?? Got my Sensa track load levelers from Amazon delivered Wednesday.They were $95 a pair...free shipping, no sales tax. Need to get my son to help install when he is available......

Jack up by frame and take off all the weight from suspension. That way you don't have to compress them
