Default 2000 Dakota in NE Alabama

I’ve had the Dakota for about a year, daily driver. I’ve started working on to repair some minor issues and it has turned into an obsession. I’ve not been much of a mechanic other than oil changes and the occasional alternator etc. but when I started on this truck it’s changed me. Over th past month I’ve spent over $1200 on just tools. I’m 50 years old and I’m looking forward to learning more about not just my truck in particular but these engines (4.7l). Thanks for the knowledge in advance.

Thanks for the welcome.

I would, but it’s nothing special. I’ve never really concerned myself with the outside, it’s more of a thing for me to improve what I have to suit my needs mechanically. But I will probably post some pics eventually in the appropriate thread.
