How about a sticky on what other Dodges, Ferds, Chebbies, etc to steal parts from

Hi
I looked through the stickies but didn't find what I needed.
I can't find any Dodges close to 92 in the yards - and no diesels! Thanks because everyone is still driving them!
Might be nice to have a list of various parts and where you stole them
The info is probably scattered throughout our posts - would be useful to gather into one post.
What do you think? Anything you can add?
TO GET STARTED
For example, I found the following fit my 1992 w250
From a 1993 dodge dakota
Ignition switch
Turn signal / wiper switch
Cruise buttons
Cheers, Jim

A Gasser NV 4500 will work behind a 5.9. You will need a new input shaft and input bearing holder. You will also need a 23 spline NP 205 transfer and the 23 spline adpeter. I would say put the diesel 4500 output bearings in it before it even gose in the truck,dont sweat it too much when I did it,napa crossed the numbers and the bearings fit like a custom made kid glove. You may want to double check just in case.

Thanks for the responses.
Hopefully there will be more.
I'd be willing to organize the info like the present stickies.
Say categories like electrical, body, brakes, etc.
Cheers

Power window motors from early 90's Dakota's work in our trucks.
They are opposite sides though.if you need a passenger side motor you have to take the driver side from the Dakota
