EXTRA...EXTRA.....READ ALL ABOUT IT!! Dodge installs
skidplate and some type of supplemental lower fan
shroud on 4.7 Dakotas!! Fasteners very difficult to
remove on lower shroud/cover,and will piss you off
royal!! Skidplate completely covers drain plug!! Not
hard to remove skidplate,but why is it there?! 4.7
Dakotas apparently deemed by Dodge engineers to have
serious ground clearance problems when compared to
their "LA"-engined counterparts!! Heavy rock-climbing
useage with all 4.7 Daks anticipated by Dodge!! Dodge
installs very small and hilariously offset access door
to enable viewing of oil filter!! Oil changes now
require removing big plastic pieces!! Dodge invents
the 2 1/2 hour oil change!! etc. etc. Good night!
