There's basically nothing a Dakota and Jeep have in common except the engine and tranny. Otherwise it's.....two different vehicles lol.

You will be surprised what a 4.0 in a Grand Cherokee will do. They have a ton of torque and are very good off-roaders. A 4.0 in a GC will turn 33's over with ease when going up hills, all 4 of them.
