Dakota is a well used tool, its amazing what its been though, and what its capable of.


That being said, it has been long neglected for serous change or replacement if i owned it haha

long neglected because it needs 2 grand in shit to still not be raceable.

air shocks on it would fix most comfort issues but cause lots of changes at the same time. the only small bite needed is hydro steering and that's pretty much my lowest priority complaint.

I'm amused that 14 months ago I boogered this thing back together from 2 pieces.

Used up. Things are falling apart under there!

Code is TPS related, that makes sense for poor running at low throttle and idle stalling.

Trans is draining. No chunks in the pan, but more than nothing. Magnet was not installed.

Short shopping list. Haven't decided if I'll spend the money to fill, run & drain the trans once. I probably Gould since it still seems serviceable.

Temp sender and magnet will be reinstalled.

Josh was intending to take some good, salable parts off that Scrambler. I don't have that option.
