I just put new(used) fenders and doors on my 92 Dakota. Thanks for the info. Keep the videos coming
Oh wow, that was quick! Glad it helped!
She’s coming along nicely
Thanks, its a cool little truck
Can you make a vid on how to take the grill off?
If we need to do it in the future, I'll try to remember to do it. However, its not difficult. You remove headlight trim buckets first, 4 screws on each. 2 on top, and 2 below. The below ones are a little tough to get to because they're in-between the bumper and headlight trim. Pull all the bulbs out. Then remove remaining screws in the main grill piece. I think there is one in the center on bottom, and the remaining on top. Take your time, shouldn't be an issue. Good Luck!
Hey, great content! I will be replacing my hood front bumper & the lower facia on my 96 Dakota. Question where can I find a front bumper that is NOT chromed? I want to be able to paint it red to match the truck & the same with the lower front facia. Any Ideas where to find them?
Junkyard would be my only recommendation. I'm not sure if anyone reproduces these in black. Good luck on your search!
Sand it and then paint it. There are plenty of videos on CZcams. It will never be a show truck so you will be fine
Wish you would’ve shown more on how to take the door panel off but some good tips in there
I'll keep that in mind for the future. If it helps, there is a screw in the middle of the door handle area, another up at the top behind the mirror and then it just pops out. I usually pry with my fingers at the bottom corner of the door panel where the feax speaker grill is
@@RacerXGarage I came here exactly to see how to get the door panel off without breaking it. Appreciate the tips!
I could have used that headlight you smashed
They're $90 bucks on ebay for a brand new pair, I'd def recommend going that direction
If you come across these pieces let me know. Thanks Dennis / Looking for all black trim / window channel on driver and passenger side windows in good condition not brittle. Also need hood corner pads. Thanks .Dennis Will consider purchasing complete door to get pieces.
I don't have any off hand, I think you can find some of that new. Might check in the fakebook Dakota groups. Good luck with your search
What wheels does he have on this truck
These are Gen II Dakota RT Wheels
Does it have door speakers ? Or nah
it did, but they were not hooked up
DAKOTA looking good.
Appreciate it! Will be even better when we get some paint on it.
Those r/ts look like shit you need to send them to me
hahaha, I think they will stay on the black truck for a while
Any Idea if this is basically the same for the 1989 Dakota?
They share the same frame, so my assumption is yes
where'd y'all shop online for parts like the hood etc? My hood needs a replacement that fits but it's impossible to find.
We found the hood on FB Marketplace, and had to go to the local pick-a-part got the hinges.
I'm sure you can order one from certafit aka sortafit.
Can i get some headlight info?.....links? Please
We just bought these off of eBay. Don't have a specific link but I do remember they're about $100 for the pair.
Where u get bucket sits 4 that?
These buckets a factory option in this truck
I have a 92 dakota, how do I get the front bumper off?
There are 6 bolts underneath on the very front inside of the frame rails, and then 2 supports that go on the outside frame rails that hold the bumper on.
@@RacerXGarageThanks man, love the build btw
Are you in Texas? If so, what part? I’m down in Houston, recently took ownership of a ‘68 Barracuda.
Yessir, we're NW of Houston
Need to put in a HELLCAT ENGINE . NEED FUR DPEED
Speed
That'd be cool, but man are they pricey!
