Well, I wish I could help you with this. I have a 93 Dakota myself and have been looking for a suspension lift for some time now. You might just have to go with a simple body lift.

It helps to post if you truck it 2wd or a 4x4. If it's a 4x4, your only option for a 91-96 Dakota suspension kit is the Trailmaster 4" kit.

Sorry for double post. I somehow lost half of it??

Heavy Duty (V8) Torsion Bars (Dealer)

Had the whole lift and t-bars powder painted Safety Yellow w/clear coat ($400) Creative Finishing

Also total factory suspension rebuild (balljoints,t-rods,idler arm,pitman,Front hubs, all bearings, Brakes, etc....) ($900) Autozone

Reman Transfer case ($595+core)

Future Mods
===========
Lock Right Locker rear (1230) My Dak does well now, but more traction is always better (LOL)

4.10 Gears front and rear (I really need these gears as my Dak is currently a slug the 33's are to big for 3.55 gears an overdrive is useless)

Trailmaster 3" body lift (#9340) and 2" rear add-a-leaf (#R1536) (in hope to fit 35x12.50x15)

I could send pictures. Also I spent many hours on the net researching this project. So if you need part#, pricing, install tips (I did the install myself), etc, just ask....
I currently measure 26" to he bottom of my open drivers door!!!!! Hoping for 30" when I get done!!! We recieved 22" of snow in Southern Indiana before Christmas. All though Xtrerrians are more of rock crawling tire, they did well in the deep snow. The only times I got stuck is when the snow get push up over my front bumper. Jumped out shovel out in front of all tires. Backed up a litte, matted the gas (LET THE BIG DOGS EAT) and hopped right over the snow pile!!!

94 Dakota Lift/Tires
IP: Logged

Message:
I have a 94 Dakota SLR RWD with a 318. I'm planning
on putting a 2in rough country suspension lift on
it. Will 33X12.5R15 tires fit? What is the biggest
tire I can fit on it?
