Btw, I had several pickups with the BB hood starting with a 74....hated them. Think I mentioned that before lol

Did the 79's have the flat hoods? How bout the early 79 trucks? Seem like I had a 79 that had the bird bath hood and found the later flat hood and swapped it out. I hated the BB hoods and thought what moron would have designed such a dumb thing! I had 3 79 trucks and only remember one having the...

I know nutin about it!! Do know a little bit about the mid 90's port injection systems and yeah, gotta get someone that has the tools for it. I have two mid 90's Dakotas and knock on wood, they keep on truckin. Picked up a load of crap gas in one of them that was full of crap and had to replace...

What I did on an older pickup was to add another shunt strip to the gauge to what was already there. It made the gauge less sensitive but it still let me know there was still juice going to the battery.

Is this a copy and paste reply from Grougle or.....??

Does the first gen Durango have a BCM? How bout a headlight relay? Had a 2000 for many years and the relays were on the driver's side towards the front. Wouldn't hurt to look. I also noticed that the relays were a like and were the same as the ones on my 95 and 96 Dakotas.

The Dakota is a good truck....except for mileage. I've used mine for parts chasers and going to the store for groceries (tool box or plastic storage container in the back) and parking is a breeze plus loading 1500 lbs isn't hard. I have a 97 2500 Club Cab lwb diesel and well, it's just big but...

@Joey did you get tangled up in the cables again?? :lol:

I've had several V6 Dakota trucks starting with an 87. That one was the best on mpg of all the ones I've had. No OD but had a 2.94 rear gear iirc. Low 20's on the hiway was easy and so was getting 17 in town. Next was a 90 extended cab. Talk about not much spunk vs the 87. Don't remember the...

Welcome to the site! And yes, nice looking truck....1972?

If the fluid is low enough to hamper performance, it will usually whine when put into reverse. Not sure but the whine is cavitation

In the plumbing world it's called a reducing bushing or just a bushing. I've always liked to use a brass or stainless-steel bushing there.

Sure does! Thought maybe your new flex lines might be clogged.....but may not be quality control problem on the calipers. Probably more like parts sitting on a shelf for years on end....?

My trucks don't need service records.....95, 96 and 97 :D and all still running great. Well, the 95 is pretty loose as I was pretty hard on it lol but yeah, my are the exception to the rule. Most people though don't keep good service records and betting that my records are better than most even...

Fluid level up to where it should be checking in neutral and at operating temp? Who did the rebuild? Is it a shop and have a warranty?

The plug where the USA tag is located should work....if not, someone will chime in. So long as it sees the water below the T-stat.....

How hard was it to blow it apart? I've only parted one Dakota and it was a 91 and it impressed me that it was fairly easy to pull it all apart.

95@55% in my shop as I type.....91 with the same humidity just outside the back door with a carport cover over the gauge. The gauge inside is maybe 10' inside the building with a floor fan blowing in lol

Automatic transmission? And how fast do you plan on going? The 9" has a lot of aftermarket parts for it which makes it pretty good but also at a pretty good cost. It also robs a bit more power over the others.....

AJ, are you talking about freeing up server space or space from your own computer? It would be nice not to delete it from here if that's what you're talking about. I've built a 'few' engines too starting with my first one back in the mid 70's. Did I know what I was doing? Not really and didn't...
