Hey guys. Just picked up my 99 Dakota 4x4 with a 318 last week and have been doing some basic maintenance first and some other ends such as bilstein shocks and what not.


My problem is when I have it in 2wd it turns just fine, but when engaged in 4wd hi or low it seems to bind and catch almost to the point of stopping the truck. Is this bad cv shafts or something else?

My other question is there a history of any gremlins on these trucks I should know about? I had a 96' Dakota v6 about 5 months ago and most of the issues were with the ecm. Once I replaced that it ran perfect, go figure on the day I sold it lol.

Thanks for the help.
