Well I did some of of the lift on the dakota this weekend. I did the 3" body, 2" shackles & had the 33" x 11.5" all terrains mounted. I havent gotten my 3" coils in yet. I cant put the front bumper on until I get the coils due to rubbing issues. I like it so far. What do yall think? Should I stay w/ stock rims or get crager soft 8's?

Looks good. I like both styles of rims so I cant help there lol. Stock rims are cheaper though

True lol

The body lift itself was easy. The body lift prep & putting back together sucked. I worked on it 6 hrs friday night taking my time bs'in w/ buddies & drinking beer & eating spicy boiled peanuts(my hands were killing me from eating them w/ cuts on them from working on the truck). And I orking on itfrom 9 30 am til 5 pm yesterday then had to hurry up & get ready to go see shinedown.

All thats left is the 3" coils which will be like night & day from the way it is now, & mouting the front bumper w/ new hardware & shimming it about .5" to 1" forward to prevent rubbing

Yea I like the cragers to. Thats 1 of the only rims I like for my truck. Mine is an 04 so I can only fit 16's, not 15's. If I could run 15's like the 03's & below I would have all kinds of rim selections
