The Chevy rockers will work on the Dakota because they are stud mounted and
so are ours. I would just order a kit specific to the Dakota from somewhere
that has everything you will need for the swap and not try to piece it
together. It may cost a little more but you will have everything. The
stock ratio is 1.6 so you should go with that and not 1.5's
