Have a 2006 Dakota 4x4 manual looking for a leveling kit and possibly
a body lift. Any advice would be helpful.

 

Do some searching on the site. Lots of info here. If you are 4x4, it is not recommended to go over 2.5". Body lift 3" max. These trucks were not designed to be lifted. Premature front end suspension component failure is a common side effect of installing spacers. Welcome to the forum.
