That's what I was thinkin...saggy/worn out springs

Has anyone done a three main leaf BP? I was going to use a cut down third main leaf instead of the stock second leaf. Every once in a while I have to carry A LOT of weight over a bit of distance. I know it'll pretty much ride like a tank... I could always take it off it I don't like it...

towing package? It's the plow package that is different.

The 98s are the only ones that had that option anyways, and it wasn't very popular.
The 99 definitely has the right box. I got mine out of a 99.

The only thing you NEED to make sure of is that it has a V8 engine (either the 5.2L or 5.9L).

For a bastard pack does it matter if it's from a dodge Dakota ? Or only does Durango and s10 work??
