    I have a 2006 Dodge Dakota 4.7 v8 4x4 and I replaced the transfer case motor about a month ago because it would switch into 4wd on its own without me actually changing it. Worked fine up until today when it started happening again, switching to 4wd on its own. What else could be causing the...

    1993 318 4wd with the 46rh transmission. Reverse works fine but drive is neutral and either 1st or 2nd is reverse also and the other is neutral. 1=N 2=R or the other way around I can’t remember. I have it out of the truck and getting ready to rebuild. Does anybody have any idea what the cause...
  3. 1ST Generation Dodge Dakota: 1987 - 1996
    This whole problem started one day when my Dakota stalled out on my way home from work. I was able to start it up multiple times and got it moving 50 ft each time before it stalled out again. Each time it stalled it got harder and harder to start up. Eventually I just went ahead and called a tow...

    I have an 04' dakota 4x4 with the 4.7L. I noticed over the past few months that there is a humming/whining sound when driving in 4high. It is loudest at about 35 mph and does not change when I shift to neutral at that speed. It does not seem to be tied to load on the engine or RPM, but rather...

    I have a 03 Dakota 2wd and I want to convert it to a 4x4 by what iv read it's borderline impossible to just simply convert it so my next thought is putting it on a 4x4 chassis but I can't seem to find any for a reasonable price for what I want but I found a 4x4 Durango for pretty cheap so my...

    Unfortunately my transmission went out last week. The problem I'm having is, I can find very little on the 42rle trannies. Other than I should have had a 2nd Trans cooler installed with it. I have a guy that is gonna rebuild it for 900. I'm taking it out and to him, I have a Trans jack. I've...

    My lights/radio etc were left on until my battery ran dead. After jumping it and starting my truck the Service 4WD light was on and it will not shift into 4WD. Where do I start diagnosing this? Could this be related to the dead battery or was that just a coincidence? Many thanks for your help...

    Hey all, I just purchased a 1997 Dodge Dakota recently for $700. It is absolutely beautiful and body is in perfect condition. Now when I got it the transmission had gone out on the last owner. He did have a new tranny for it but it was in the bed and the old had already been removed. Well I...

    Hi i have an 02 Dodge Dakota, recently i get a clicking noise when going in reverse here and there. My dad who used to be a mechanic thinks that the computer for the 4wd is having a mind of its own and cant decide whether to put it in 4wd or 2wd... is this it? I unplugged the actuator today...
