97 dodge dakota lug conversion

looking to do a 5lug conversion on a 97 dodge dakota having a problem with the front rear is already takin care of any sugggestions

im looking for rims for my 97 dakota, 17,18,19, 20's, have you got any ?, and what did you do with your back to convert to five lug?

yea i dont have any wheels for dakotas but i do have a set of cadillac escalade wheels with a high ofset if you want them ill sell them for 500 with a set of tiresbut there low profile are you bagged

yea im bagged, i have had problems with tuckin wheels, what size are they

I HAVE A 5 LUG REAREND OUT OF AN 86 DAKOTA ILL SELL. IT MAYBE A LITTLE NARROWER TOO.

ALL DAKOTA REAR ENDS ARE WIDE U HAVE TO SHORTEN OR GET CUSTOM RIMS. PERIOD

I hear the best way is to use S-10 spindles and an S-10 rearend.

It takes some work to get them to work (s10 parts on a dak). I was the 2nd person in the states to convert to a 5 lug after shane albright (1st b/d 3rd gen dak) Its not hard to do. I'm so glad i did it. I didn't have to shorten anything to lay frame on 20"s Tucked up quite nicely. no rubbage either. So this is a message to everyone before you say something can't work do the research and make sure your right. Theres been alot of people that said somethings won't work for a dakota after the fact that 1 i've done it or 2 its been done. I'm friggin wasted right now too. So i'll check back in the morning and respond to what i have said.

Ok, I got a 98 dakota, whats it take to use the s10 spindles on the front. I can't find nice wheels with that fucked up bolt pattern

hey i have some intro twisted vista im tryin to get rid of 17inch really good tires almost new im me if yall need them $650 plus shippin it fits the truck perfect
