I wanted to initially have the 5.9's got a problem with a weak tranny and right now I just need something that's reliable and decently quick. I've never ran the 1/4 but I'm guessing if I did I'd be in the high 14's. Ontop of that they're an older body style that I didn't really like, but if I saw a dakota r/t for the right price I'd offer a trade if the buyer was willing.
Your dakota came with the same engine I've got as well but they never put the 5.9 in the WJ (99-04 grand cherokee) if they did I would have one right now
What did you do with your transfer case? (I'm guessing the Dakota has a transfer case, or is it RWD?)
I've toyed with the idea of dropping the transfer case all together and just getting a custom driveshaft that goes from the tranny straight to the rear diff.
