As the title says, today me and a buddy of mine put the Performance Accessories 2" Body Lift on my Dakota. It may only be 2" but it looks and feels a lot bigger, I love it!

I took a ton of pictures during every step of the lift and I'm going to make a big 'how-to' write up, so soon there will be many more pictures of my truck, but for now all I have is one I took tonight at work with my cell phone.

I cranked my t-bars, have the 2" body lift, and have a set of 2" lift blocks to give me some frame angle again. I've read around a bit and I'm pretty sure that I should be able to fit 33x12.5's. I plan on getting 4.5" offset rims, so I believe that will help prevent or reduce steering bind, and I know I may have to trim the fender trim, but Im buying fiberglass fenders pretty soon anyways.

Now you just need to reposition the bumpers, and your good to go

Yeah, my drill was dead and my buddy didnt have one, so thats a project for another day. I'm going to re-position the front bumper but I'm going to leave the small gap in the rear bumper because I'm going to fill it with a "Firestorm LED Bar"

Damn, that truck looks sweet. I say it everytime but it is in such nice condition. I absolutely love the 1st gen Dakotas. Keep up the good work and includ more pictures.
Looks like you got some new tires too, what kind did you get?
