> Alarm System (MOPAR $150+++)

Dont know about that one......dont have on on my Dak, dont have to worry
about that kind of thing where I live.....we just carry guns to protect our
property....hehe

> Skid plates (MOPAR $130)

This $130 is for what skid plates??? Tcase, gas tank, front diff, oil pan?
If it is for all of them and make sure they are STEEL, cause someone
reported they are plastic!!! Otherwise, $130 sounds good......

> Class IV receiver hitch (MOPAR $157-$275)

You can get a Class IV Hitch for about $110 and install it yourself. Mine
ran me $86 about 4 years ago from JC Whitney, it is a Hidden Hitch and I am
pleased with it. Just watchfor sales and do it yourself. Another $30 will
get you a complete trailer plug-in wiring harness.

> Tow Hooks ??

 Not sure here, I know they make the front Tow Hook Kit for 97-99 4WD Daks
which is an awesome kit. Sure it may be like $150, but I think it is so well
worth it!! It is a very stout and secure kit.

> Bed Liner ??

Spray in without a doubt. I have had a Rhino-Liner on my Dak for almost 5
years now and will NEVER own a pickup without one. I got mine double coats
also for even more protection. Whatever brand you go with, I know there are
about 4-5 out there, just get the spray in kind and never have to worry
about rust again; I have a drop in plastin one in my Dak for a year and due
to the rubbing and vibration, it wore down the paint and started to rust.
Spray in and be done.

> Brush Guard ??

Mopar will cost ya, but you get what you want, its your truck. I would
suggest to get one also, they are all bolt on kit, which really help protect
the front end. My Ram Offroad Accessory Grill/Bursh Guard ran me $200 from
JC Whitney this summer, once again, just watch for sales....Good Luck with
the truck!!
