So are there any motor mounts out there or am I gonna have to make some for my 4x4?
Also for the throttle body what is everyone doing? My 4.7 has a cable but the 5.7 is drive by wire. Is there a big manual throttle body that will work with the 4.7 computer or do I got to use the 4.7 TB or what? If I go to switching computers then I got to wory about VIN, security and miles programming...
Everyone says its real easy but having a hard time finding anyone that followed this through to completion.

Aren't the Dakotas the same as the Durangos under the hood and same frame? 1'st generation Durangos were based on the Dakota. They never had the Hemi. 2'nd generation Durango's (~2006) did have the Hemi and were different underneath I believe. Still worth checking as 2'nd generation Durangos also had the 4.7.

I am not looking right now but one the bracket bolts to the top of the diff front to back and the other bolts to the top of the diff side to side. My interchange says 01 to 11 dakota front diff interchange and only 01-03 durango will go in the 01 to 11 dakota. For some reason when they changed the durango body in 04 they decided they should change the way the front diff mounts.
