I called my dealer today to ask about the problem with my rough idle when you first start it up in the morning>i told him that it has stalled twice in the past after starting,his reply to me that it was a v-8 truck and that was normal for a v-8.I have owned my share of v-8s,I have a 68 GT mustang and it starts just fine and its 33 years old.I told him this and he said to bring it in but that they probably not find nothing because it is normal for a v-8.I also asked if this and the brakes warpping was a common problem with the Dakota he said no which leads me to belive that to work in the service department for DC you must either be on drugs or have sever mental problems.

You may already know this but there is a PCM upgrade for the 4.7. There's a bulletin out which you should be able to find on one of those freebie recall lists. Take that to the dealer. I have your exact setup but with the stock 31x10.5s.
Good luck!

My 99' Dakota idles kinda rough at starup too.
It sounds like it is gasping, but after she gets warmed up, she runs just fine... go figure!
