trx4 vs regular 4x4
I ordered both skid plates that were in the TRX package, one for the fuel tank and one for the transfer case. The tow hooks can still be ordered too. I placed the order on the 17th, and it's supposed to have shipped out today. I'll pass along the info when I'm sure the parts are correct.
Did you know we can only have the SLT package in Mexico?

We can not decide what we want, we have to get what the dealer have!

Thats what I figured. What I did for my skids's was buy the raider skid plates as they seemed to be about 20% cheaper than the OEM's dodge ones.
Glad u found a good deal on it... It's like buying a car part from a Chevy dealer to fit ur Cadillac, or Vw to fit Audi, u can always find a better price for the same stuff!
I'm working on getting mine to that 
So yea, sorry for resurrecting this thread from the grave but a couple points/corrections...
The TRX didn't come with a leveling kit. I know this 100% because I just installed one. Haha
The 08 model did not have 4 wheel anti-lock. Only rear. So unless new models came with it that's false info. The shocks are supposedly slightly stiffer than other Dakota trim packages (but they're still garbage. I just replaced all 4 corners on mine with Monroe Sensa-Tracs), and the TRX supposedly also has a 1" higher ride height, but that hasn't been proven as fact as far as I know.
They did come with a trans cooler and heavy duty engine cooling, which are nice to have. Especially with how I drive :/ Some other differences are skid plates, wheel flares, "off-road" tires, TRX decal, the TRX rims in this thread, interior trim, and a couple other insignificant little BS items.
All in all, I'm happy with the truck. Especially now that it's no so bouncy.
So, hopefully I'm going to continue down that road to getting it looking more like that Warrior (minus the steel bumpers probably)
Peace!

i read that there is a1" higher ground clearance i defiantly want that. if my info is correct my 05 has 7.9" and if the newer 06 trx4 is 8.9 thats not bad. and looking for ways to get my stance up where it should be is a pain no one seems to want to make anything for the dakota guys
