That's exactly why I don't drive my Dakota in the Winter. It's a total death trap.

I drive mine in the snow and ice all the time. but only horse around when I can see what I am driving on. Only fix for black ice is 10mph driving.

what happened to it?

[THEJRODFILES]

i went around the bend of a two lane road at about 65 mph and hit black ice. started to fish tail and caught the gaurd rail. road the rail for a little bit then wrapped it around a tree. the passenger door is touchin the middle arm rest i hit it so hard.

whao man . that's brutal .I've got a 99Ram 1500 4x4. kinda looking for a 2wd to do up a bit . thought the r/t would be a good start so i'm shopping around a bit.

[THEJRODFILES]

the r/t was a blast. i actually have a chance to buy a durango r/t with the 5.9 and it has rims, a cowl hood, and front bumper. the outside is already done, all i gotta go is put the engine parts on it i had on this one, and parts i had sittin waitin to be installed

What did you put down at the wheels before and after the blower.

[THEJRODFILES]

when i went to the dyno with the blower the belt was slippin and i had to buy a new pulley. i neva got to go back to the dyno once i got the pulley. they say 250 hp stock i believe, i was pushin 290 to the wheels without the blower.

[THEJRODFILES]

hey thanx for the comment. gibson was the headers i had on it but i have a set of the mopar headers waitin to be installed that are still new. i have a powerdyne blower which is an easier set up then a vortech. i will be selling a lot of parts that were on it and parts that were never used. if ur interested ill send u a list of all the parts ill be selling. thanx again

[dakotaRT18]

[besellers]

that is a bad ass truck, there arnt that many supercharged 5.9's out there, my buddy actually has one and it is bad ass

[THEJRODFILES]

hey thanks for the comment on the r/t. it was a blast to drive, to bad its gone. i am still in the process of saving parts from it like the blower, intake manifold, headers, etc. and body parts like the fiberglass hood, etc. once again thanks for the comment.
