Mechanical condition & significant repairs:

- Recently inspected and serviced

- Synthetic lubes used in engine and rear axle since my purchase in '99

- New front brakes, serpentine belt, coolant flush/fill and R-F wheel bearing (caught at inspection)

- New lubeable front ball joints and control arm bushings (Polygraphite) installed at 39,500 miles (Dodge recalled original ball joints)

- Transmission rebuilt at 50,800 miles (typical rear servo failure) w/ all new friction components

- Heater core replaced at 63,700 miles

- L-F wheel bearing replaced at 70,800 miles

- All service and maintenance records (since Oct '99)

 

Exterior condition:

- Body has some dents and minor rust-thru (all shown in photos)

- Paint suffers from typical Dodge clearcoat weather-thru (no peeling), primarily on the roof & bed rails

- Factory full-size spare wheel and tire still in tact (never been used)

- Left front fender refinished, front bumper, headlamp assembly and fog lamp replaced as result of minor fender bender (2/11)

 

Interior condition:

- Very clean, no wears/tears in upholstery or carpet

- Everything works except passenger side remote power mirror, passenger door speaker, and passenger door domelight switch (all of these go through a common connector that was missed during re-assembly when heater core was replaced)

 

This is a very reliable, 2nd owner truck that was well maintained, is in excellent mechanical condition with well below average miles and no leaks under the hood or under the drive train.  All of the typical things that fail on Dakotas have been repaired or upgraded (ball joints, heater core, transmission rebuild, control arm bushings).  It runs and drives great, quick off the line and has outstanding handling.

Thanks
