What i dont understand is why your being a complete Jacka#$ about what i said. I never said i drove 60mph with a flat tire i drove about 200 feet and stopped at 2:30 in the morning AAA took the truck to a garage to replace the tire the next day. I got a new tire put on and on my way home the rear end went. And the rear end came off my parts truck so it cost me nothing.
Maybe osme of you are to stubborn to read the whole post. 5.2l 318 magnum is a v8. Its a v8 people stop acting like as if its a sacless pile of crap i paid $300 because the guy i boguht it off of lost his license because of a dui and the deep course cost $300. It was one wire causing it to not start. Nothings wrong with the truck. And No the radiator i took out of it had a crank as the goose neck on the top hose inlet. It needed to be replaced. It was rotten so i got out of a junkyard from a v6 96 dakota auto a aluminum plastic radiator.

Lighten up Francis.
Driving 200 feet on a flat tire will not cause your rear diff to detonate. Sorry, your rear diff was already on it's death bed.
Pssst-if you hadn't been "too cool" to carry a spare tire, you could have drove your truck home that night.
See, here's part of the problem-we read, write and speak the English language. Your grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure is so poor, that it's hard to interpret what you're trying to convey.
Sounds like you found a dummy to sell a perfectly good truck for $300, unless the truck's a roach. Let's see pics.
If top hose inlet was cracked, should have just brazed it and saved yourself a lot of money, brass is really easy to braze.
So you put a radiator out of a V6 truck into a V8 truck? Let us know how that one works out for you.:smirk:
Nah, I'm not going to ban him, he's entertaining!

Part numbers for the v6 auto and v8 auto are the same brackets are all the same radiato shroud mounts are the same everything was the same. The radiator cost me nothing i gave them my old radiator becuase they buy copper brass radiators $1.20 lbs they were gonna charge me $30. And as for the rear tire the only spare tire i had to put on it were not the right size tire. The ones i had on my truck were 235/70 and the spare was a 235/75 off of a 4x4 dakota. The size difference would've been worse for my rearend. And the rearson the guy also sold the truck so cheap was because he pulled in to a gas station to get a coffee on his way to work. Went out to go start the truck and it wouldn't start. It sat in his drive way since the beggiening this winter he put a new fuel pump in it tihnking that was it but it wasnt. He messed with everything. So he just said screw it and boguht a new toyota tacoma. He wanted it gone and said he wanted money just for the new snow tires that he bought for it. He jsut wanted the truck gone. So say what you want theres no lying no bragging nothing just air heads trying to get me to say something that they dont believe. 3923 autlite plugs does make a difference thier colder running plugs my truck runs 30 degrees cooler than with the stock suggested plgus which are autolite 3923 plugs and the same as the e3's. And as for swapping parts I thoguht i'd help myself to explaining this befoe you guys start saying "oh ya hahaha" or other smartass remarks. All dakota's 92-96 are all the same as far as models go. 90% of the parts are exchangeable except for like internal motor parts and stuff bolted on to the block. Brakes tranny's lug pattern interior frame gas tanks are all the same.
I thought you had the stock spare, but took it (and the jack) out to get it lighter to get it faster?

I'll bet he's going to regret that decision when he gets the insurance bill for a new truck + DUI.
Spark plugs do NOT cause a 30 degree reduction in engine temps. Thermostats control engine temp. Besides, you want the engine to run as HOT as possible to get the most complete burn possible, while getting the coldest intake air possible.
Running cold does not increase power.

I'm not up on these truck threads, so refresh my memory.:bonk:
Is this the same guy who put something like some new spark plugs or something in his truck and gained 200 horsepower, and 5 seconds off his 0-60 time or something like that?:excuseme:
If so, I gotta get my popcorn.

Yes its an auto but its not a v6 trust me its not sackless. And chicken hauler i had a parts truck my old truck is not a parts truck. The reason i never put it on was because of mpg and because it wasnt the right size ire or rim it was made for my new truck. (4wd) BUt i got rid of my parts truck right after the rearend went for $100 only so much room in my drive way for 3 vehicles plus my dads truck and car.
NO its not but these guys have made it in to threads that make me look like that. I try to say something aobut what i've done and they crack jokes. I pu in new spark plugs and say about 6hp because the old ones were corroded and all crap on my old ruck and hey have a field day. And chicken a colder plug in the magnum series motors along with a colder thermostat makes them run and burn better. Its all about emmision's when it comes to me. I de-smog em and than mod. As you can say. Like dodge put a hotter running thtermostat in magnum motors. 185. I'm putting in a 180. Why? Because the 185 was to pass emmision testing but maine doesnt have that. So straight pipes going from 3" down to 2 1/4" Makes for my back pressure and i have a good flowing exhaust. BUt im sure you guys will find some one way to call me stupid for that

Your wasting your time dude. If its for passing emissions, ie, complete combustion, why are you changing it? Obviously the way its set up now is better. Think about it.
Save your money and get some 1.7 rockers, and a cam.
Dont make bogus claims, most of us know better. Also, take some time to proofread what you say, it will help you out alot.

You have driven kingquadeaster's Dakota? In Louisiana? Sorry, but I fail to see the connection between you two. And the fact that you "kept up" with a Corvette: you may have put more bullsh*t into that one, small phrase than kingquad has in one of his whole entire epic threads.
BTW, I have driven a V8 Dakota quad cab (standard), it wasn't even near 'Vette territory. Not by a long shot.

ha yea that will keep up with our 315hp nissan titan. no that this matters in a truck but im pretty sure it is the fastest out of all the half ton workhorses (dont quote me on this) but im pretty sure it even beats the new tundra with 380hp. i just found out the 0-60 is around 7sec for my dads truck. and yours is 8.3sec. yea. that will smoke our truck for sure:p

Once again, you have mistakenly claimed 230whp, which it is not.
Not only that, but I got real bad news for you-an early 90's 5.9L gets eaten for lunch by just about every V8 truck made in the last 5 years.
My 94 C1500 was rated at 200 HP (not RWHP) and I can openly admit that it will get schooled by my wife's 03 Saturn Vue.
You should ask really nicely of some of your friends parents to drive their trucks once, you'd be amazed. The difference you would notice is like going from a CRF230 to a CR250R.
