Does any one besides a suspension lift kit for a 1994 besides TrailMaster?

I have found their 4" lift for $1499.00 online.

Nope, the Trailmaster DD43 is the only kit available for the 91-96 Dakota 4x4. Beside the cost of the kit, you'll also need to replace the rims if you're still running the stock one or have a rim with more than 4" back space. Also plan on a few "While it's apart" parts that you'll discover will need to be replaced "While it's apart". I have a write up on my personal site that will give you a pretty goos idea what it will take to install it.

IMO, it's not worth it if you plan on doing anything more than mild off-roading. The brackets are just too flimsy for any real hard-core use.

I looked at the pics of your Dakota. It looks high enough that I had to ask if you have other lift kit components on it? What else do you have on it, if any?

yea, I also had a 3" Body lift, cranked V8 torsion bars and rear add-a-leafs. That truck is sitting on jackstands right now with no suspension at all. I removed everything to convert it to front and rear Dana 60s but the project is stalled right now because other priorities. I should be getting back on that project soon.
