Holla...did you not realize what snowman already said?!

If he has a 2WD Fabtech is his option.

If he has a 4WD then it would be Rancho.

Rancho does not make a lift for 2WDs and Fabtech does not make a 4WD kit for the Dakota.

FabTech lifts i can do for 800 shipped

Rancho only makes a 3" lift for the Dakota Youi could add a 3" body lift to it if you wanted to run larger tires. I can get the 01-03 lift for 1575.00 plus shipping includes 9000x shocks
add 185.00 for body lift
Shipping cost should be around 50.00

As far as the tires Never been a big fan if large wheels on a 4X4 18s and up are for 2wds but thats just my thoughts. A nice deep 15 or 16" wheel with some 33s ro 35 on it look the best Give me a call 703-409-2368 and we can talk more about it

I agree with Holla. I like my 3 inch fabtech suspension but it's really stiff. Will be changing the shocks out soon and hopefully that'll go away somewhat.


Wouldn't want any other!

Hey Holla you stupid fuk , Rancho does NOT make a lift kit for a 2WD Dakota. Yes you are wrong now go check your facts better next time and don`t open your stupid pie hole here again.

Also Fabtech does NOT make a lift kit for the 4WD Dakota , only the 2WD...so again get your sh!t straight before you run your trap wise A$$!

This is a Dakota website so that`s what veh. we are talking about here.Rancho does make 2WD lift kits and Fabtech does make 4WD lift kits but NOT for the Dakota!!!

Now go troll on another board somewhere.
