Message:
I'm looking for a website that carries all the bolts and everything to put a lifted Dakota back to stock suspension height. Also, if Anyone would like to buy a barely used Rancho 3" suspension lift with Trailmaster SSV shocks and al of the brackets and bolts e-mail me at Getchasome224@aol.com or just post on here and let me know. I'm only asking $600 for everything. i'm looking to go back to stock suspension.

Nothing went wrong, i am just going to drop it down because i plan on building a complete new front suspension for my truck and i'd rather ride on the stock suspension for now. There are no problems with the lift i just don't need it any longer.

What do you mean? What i want to do is remove the whole front drive unit. The axle assembly, the cv axles and front driveshaft. My question is can i do that and still drive my truck or will the front suspension not hold together?

Your hub/bearing assemblies won't hold together, they rely on the half-shafts to hold them in place.

i thought they were just bolted to the spindle and used that for support?

They do bolt to the spindle, but the hub nuts and half-shafts hold the bearings together.

Hey Hemi. Maybe if someone buys your suspension, they'll give you all the stock parts from their truck.
