its not a 5.9 but it has a cam intake exhaust... all the easy stuff done to it so its faster than a 5.9 im thinkin about getting a rear swaybar off of an r/t. and the tires i got a deal on. no what i wanted but it was cheap soo i had to work with them.
im not exatly sure what toe in is. thats were the front tires turn twords each other right? and camber? which one was that?

You want toe out or zero toe with some negative canber. Maybe 1.0 to 1.5 degrees to start. It will chew up the front tires faster but it will turn in better(reduce the understeer).

thats what i thought it was. just makin sure. would a track bar in the rear help at all? like i said its just leaf springs soo would a track bar help stiffen it up?

Walk away. One of my best friends Has a 2002 Dakota he slides around every once in a while
It can be done, but it is not easy, and it costs $$$
he was in one event in which his locker was not functioning perfectly and he had a lot of understeer problems. Hell some people probably remember it, but it was a while ago.
And, his was a 5-speed. It can be slid around, but in auto form im afraid you're getting into more trouble than you realize. If you really want to drift, get a car. Sorry man, it's really the only way to go.

yeah the auto is a bitch. but hey he did it why cant i? im not lookin to be driftin at a pro level here. i mean hell im prolly not even ganna get into an event. imjust lookin for some advice on what i can do to improve my slide ability and everyon keeps tellin me " its too much" "get a car."
even though not alot of it will be done id like to know what would cost so much money to make it drift worthy. like i said im not plannin on keepin up with any 240s or carrolas. just lookin for a fun time.
