Hi.
I have a 2000 Dakota club clab with the V6 and manual 5 speed.
I want to put a body lift on it and get bigger tires.  I saw another dakota today that apparently had a 3 inch body lift and 33
inch tires.  has anyone else done this?  also what else would i have to modify or watch for when lifting, such as the shifter or any wires?  thanks a lot.

Evan

I have a 99 5 sp v6 with a 3 inch suspension lift and 2 inches on tosion bars with 31's. I really suggest doing some more research before lifting and adding bigger tires. My v6 came this way used, but I can tell it is very sluggish and the stick is sort of out of whack from being jacked up so high, whoever did it probably didnt do it right. I love how it looks, but these v6s just arent strong enough for a lifted truck with 31's. Just my .02

Its ok, but the concept was far better
