also the 87 thru 90 ish, not all are rack and pinion it was an option,,,as i have read one one of these dakota topics

According to my 87 Dakota factory service manual, all 2wd Dakotas came with rack & pinion steering and 4x4s came with the old steering box & linkage. At some point beyond that the rack may have been an option with the 4x4 as well. Dakotas also had a power and a non-power rack available on the 2wd trucks. Gene

GENE didnt meen to jump on your post,, i just remembered some one on one of these dakota swap topics,, that the rack and pinion was an option,,if its only on the 4x4 that makes it easier to look for a donor,,

Not a problem, how could we learn anything if we never question things that are stated? After you brought up about the rack being optional, I had to dig out my book to see what it said. Gene
