I know it will work now but has anyone ever do it? and how did it drive
?.. Everyone I have spoke to says the tranny is almost the same except the
V8 tranny had one more clutch in overdrive and was a bit tougher .. Makes
sense but wondered how that would affect a guy 80 or so driving it and
issues people here have ran into as I was thinking of buying a Dakota now
that I have seen how easy they are to work on and all the interchange info
but wanna learn as much as I can to save money and hassles. Thanx to
everyone on here for your time and hints/advice :)

If its driven gently, it'll probably last a while. Meanwhile, if it starts
to give problems, you can find a better trans later on.
