It is a very great innovation that will really benefits physical incapacitated people. It is their way so that they can do their task without hesitating that they can not go with it. Aside from that, wheelchair dodge can make them transferred to another place safely.

little update, getting ready for Arizona Spinal Cord Injury annual retreat this weekend and while in Frys getting food my sidewall decided it didn't want to help hold air in my tire... I came out to my truck resting on the driver front rim... after discount threw my spare away because they lost my number I had no spare to use. A new friend from expo... Nick came to my rescue after I posted on his facebook page. he was there in about 35-40 minutes with a spare wheel with the same exact tire size and everything! we changed it out and i was on my way... My girlfriend was shocked that someone i barely knew would do that and let me drive around with his wheel on my truck until mine got figured out. this community rocks!!:wings:

HUGE HUGE thanks to Nick, who happens to be building a pretty sweet ride himself!

oh discount is trying to find a matching tire for me but found out that it is a discontinued tire. Pathfinder owners beware... goodyear made them but it looks like they are not anymore. they manager at the store near me is also getting me a replacement spare rim and tire because the ********** at discount at the pavilions tossed mine. I might be getting a whole new set of matching tires... any suggestions? I really liked the Pathfinders

NO! thank you corbin! for the giftcards to the hard rock cafe!... being a college student I cant afford to go out to eat much! lol!

So I'm rotating my tires and putting on new locking nuts at home... I go inside for a break from the 100+deg heat and get on facebook and corbin PM's me and states he is stranded across town; I only met him at the sierra expeditions opening in temple a couple months ago.

Luckily for corbin, I so happened to have his same tire size (315/75/16) on my stock rim I use for my spare...I contact him and i'am off!

Corbin looks crazy holding the tire iron in this pic! LOL! he broke the lugs before I got there. Since I was in the process of rotating my tires... I brought my enormous floor jack and safety jacks.

This is a cool thread. I like the rear bumper and the wrap around armor. Dakotas are sweet trucks, just to bad there are no suspension options for us. Or do what Nick did with his beast! :Wow1:

awesome build man... i drive a 98 durango 5.2 and love it... you ever thought about putting fiberglass fenders on the front? glassworks makes some that give you 3 more inches of wheel well and 4.5 more inches of coverage... gives the front end a nice look too
