Looks like you could use a set of drop spindles/or control arms. Your already dropped 2/3? If you are, what do you have? Springs/blocks?
Let us know

i got impatient, knowing the ride would suck after a while, and chopped the front and blocked the back. that was it. but now i got a $ to it right. i was told "they-companies in general" might not make a kit for a 4cyl. because there might not be enought room.if so, why not? its the same body as a 6 or an 8.

for a 3 inch front drop, you could use control arms (no spindles made for 97+ trucks), and 1 inch drop springs... rear is the same as all other daks

lowrider, what size tires and wheels are those on your dakota? that is a 3/5 drop? maybe it just looks higher than mine cause i have stock wheels and tires on mine right now. with just a 2/3 drop. but i have some 17" Rt rims and will put low profiles on, which should even out,more rim and less tire wall yet still fill up the wheel well. this is just why i ask what the sizes are on yours.

i have never offically calculated the gas milage, but i would have to say it has not changed. it is still very good. if it has lessened, i havent noticed. but if it has, then i can understand why.
why do you ask? because i have lowered it 2/3? have you done some modifyin on yours and lost a great deal of mileage??
