Also the Dakota, I suspect, would have just a bit beefier suspension than my S10 Donor. There is a build on this forum or maybe at killbillet that is a Dakota swap on a 47-54 3100. Might be worth a look. Maybe somebody has already provided the link. Like I said I didn't read everyone's responses.
The track width is correct but the wheelbase is 131 and to long, a 3100 is 114. I do plan on shorting the long box so could go longer then 114.
