Was getting in a hurry to go to work and didn't pay attention to typing. I
meant most DO have stock suspenions. Hopefully you can figure out the rest
of the message. :)

I meant vs. factory. And the funny part is I know no one that has hotckis
and the on RTML most do not have the stock suspension. i ike building my own
too, but the R/t gives me a much better starting point. The rims and tires
may not be the best, but i actually like the RSAs and they are much beter
than other stock Dakota Fare. As for towing 6700 pounds, what hapens to
that tow rating after a hotckis install..... I am gettinga 99 R/t hopeful
soon wit a lwered suspension, true dual exhaust, roller rockers, and a few
other things and chromed R/T rims. f i get the mney before it's sold, et's
just say 'm getting a truly killer deal. Got any pictures of yor truck? I
used t not like the SLT chrome stuff, but after seeing a 2 tone patriot
blue, I OVE T!

|i don't care if the hotchkis is better, fact is
| what you get FROM THE FACTORY IS BETTER ON THE R/T.

Huh? Factory R/T suspension is better than Hotchkis? What planet are you
from?
Or are you saying R/T vs regular Dak??? Well duh!!!

My point was every friend I have with an R/T has gone Hotchkis. And those
stock R/T tires suck as much as the regular Dak +'s do. And those vaunted
R/T cast wheels might as well be made out of lead for how much they
weigh.....

Hey, I love the R/T, but I'd rather do it my way if I was building a really
hot toy.

In my current case it was simple.... I needed to be able to tow 6700lbs.
Hence the Wunder SLuT...
