Got My dakota crossmember today..

Post by PFM-64f100 »

I recieved it today. :D .. Now I just need to get the rest of the parts and frame. The wife finally said to go ahead and get it. For some reason she doesn't want me driving my truck right now with the streeing box going out in it. It's not that bad just have to chase the wheel left and right when hitting the brakes or a small rise in the road.

Bone yard trip will be this weekend the pick and pull is having a half off sale and they have one 94 dakota left (of course no Rack so I will have to get one from another yard or buy new). It should be less than $89 for just about everything but I am not taking the rotors so they will have to give it to me cheaper. Wish me luck on this adventure.

Chris.
Looking good. I might have to look at that installation myself when I get more time.
FYI.
I'm leaving for Peoria to visit Truckfarmer (and my wife's family) early Wednesday morning and won't be back until after the 15th.
I WILL go get the frame when I get back so you can plan to come down.
See you in a couple of weeks.
U@ss
I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.
Pardon me. Does your deaug bite?
