I figure in another year I might get bored of it and do something else. A few years after that I might be ready to go two-tone with the truck.

I'm gonna bump this to show that Dakotas really earn their crash test ratings.

I did a google search for "dodge dakota exhaust" and this came up. I didn't know you had a roll-over, but it's nice to see how well the Dakota held up. Even nicer to see they didn't total it out and you got fresh paint and body colored parts out of it.

Thanks man, I'm really happy with the job the body shop did after that rollover. Shameless plug: for anyone near them Caron's Body Shop in Lewiston, ME will do the job right.

I notice this thread is in severe need of updating so here's a quick pic of how she looks with the most recent mods and the summer wheels on (click for a larger version):

  • New OEM grill shell color matched around the outside with inside and crossbars painted gloss black.
  • Figure Engineering gloss black grill inserts.
  • Springtech rear lowering shackles (2")
  • Rancho RS5757 series front shocks
  • Belltech 2212DD rear shocks
  • Boss 335 Super Finish Black 20x8.5 wheels.
  • Hankook Ventus ST tires (absolutely love these).
  • K&N is gone, now running an AEM Brute Force intake.


Ok, updated the first post too.

Where did you get that stereo bezel? I have an 05 Dakota and the bezel has cutouts for the volume and tuner *****. Did you modify it yourself, or did you get it somewhere? Sweet *** truck btw. I hope mine looks good when I get done with it lol

Recognized the Ventus tires right away, I was going to get them but I wasn't sure how they would be once we finally to get a winter here, by the time I decided I would get them, turns out they are discontinued or just plain out of stock EVERYWHERE, I still want them though, but I gots my Toyos so I'm happyish.
