In the Feb 07 issue of Sport Truck, Truckin Suspension has a 4" lift kit for 05-up Dakotas for $995. From the pic in the ad, it looks like new upper A-arms and coil-overs up front andblocks in the rear. I cant find it on thier website though and I haven't called them about it yet eithier, dont have an extra $1000 sitting around right now, maybe this summer. Anyways, thier # is 1-800-636-6947 if you want to call about it.

Also, that issue has a good spread and write up on the MBRP Dakota Dualie.

welcome to the post. you will find out a great deal about your truck from these guys. before you go and start adding a lift kit, you must say to yourself what size motor do i have and my gear ratio. these things all come into affect. if you go the 5 inch lift with bigger tires you may need to swap out the gears in the rearend. also if you have a six cyl. not a good idea. but with the 4.7 plenty of power.
