Ive got rear lift shackles from there for my rear. Not a play on words. haha. They were good to work with too. They also have some Dak lifts like 3inchers that use new springs. Good Luck.

Both 2x4lift.com and trucsusp.com make lift coils but neither have ones specifically made for the 94 dakota, so are the 1/2 ton V8 springs the ones i want??

Thanks every one for your input and help

If you have a 1994, 2wd the truckinsuspension.com lifts are for you. The v8 wont matter. All you need to focus on is the 2wd part. Your truck has a rack and pinion steering so you can only go up 3 inches in lift. I have seen a lift on the above web site that is a 3in susp. lift that uses 3in lift coils and upper a arms. Like 350-400 bucks I think. Another 200 bucks for installiation by a prof. shop. Or you could go with a 2in coil spring lift. It would be cheeper but you couldnt run as large a tire. Good Luck, let us know what you find.

Thanks Joe but see I'm kind a new at this, and trucksusp. doesn't have an excact kit made froa 94 dakota, and actually the v8 does matter because the springs are made heavier, I'm also not looking at running much larger tires I just want to replace my saggy front springs and pick the truck up a little so that is why I was wondering if the dodge 1/2 ton spring are the same as the dakota springs? Thanks again

Hi, Youll have to get another opinion on that. I have a v6 and dont really know for sure about you ride. I would think that you could call the lift co. up and ask them, I have dealt with truckinsuspension before and they are nice people. Sorry I cant give you hard facts...

I also have a 1994 Dodge Dakota (2x4). I was wondering is a 2.5 inch spacer a good idea for the front springs or should i get the whole upper C-Arm with 3 inch coil springs from just2x4lifts.com and will that work without having to ajust anything? Will my stock shocks be long enough? Thanx
