New Forums Member and the 2001 DAK (with Pics)

Back in February I bought an '01 DAK for my son for his 15th birthday. I wanted to get him a truck and get some time behind the wheel before he took over. I found a great deal on a 2WD, extended cab. It had low miles, was well maintained and due to the clear coat issues prevalent with the Gen III Dakota's had been repainted several years ago.

Spent countless hours on the forum looking at the modifications made to some of the owners trucks as well as several "How To's". This forum saved us lots of time and provided valuable information. My son saved every dime he earned. We made numerous trips to the local salvage yards for the parts he wanted and purchased the aftermarket mods. The transformation has taken lots of time, but has been fun getting there. The results are awesome and he is very proud to call it his truck.

Here are the primary changes to the DAK:
- Debadged the doors
- Installed stock fender flares (body color matched)
- 2" Leveling Kit
- Pro Comp Front Shocks
- Performance Accessories 3" Body Lift
- Performance Accessories Gap Guards
- Ion 171 (16x8) Wheels
- BFG All Terrain KO2's (265/75/16)
- Catback Flowmaster 40 w/ Duals
- Driver/Passenger Door Window Tint


Here's a before and after pic:
