    I've been thinking about Glasstek hoods, they have lexan kits too.

    Sure have a lot of parts for S-10s.
    Was talking with AAR fiberglass on getting their AAR cowl hood. It would be a pin on version, and be $100 dollars cheaper. So around $450.
    As for lexan I have had a few companies offer lexan windows for our trucks. Just gotta trim down the windshield. I've heard a bunch of good stuff about glasstek. Have you found a picture of one of their pin on hoods on a Dakota?

    Never seen/heard anything about them for a Dakota, but they get great reviews for everything else.

    I do know I am putting a lexan windshield and fiberglass pin on hood now. Seeing it's gonna be a track only trailer queen. The new R/T will be for the street.

    Sick addiction, buy a tow rig, buy a trailer. Buy another R/T to drive on the street. Just so I can go hog wild with a CC R/T race truck. LMFAO

    Owning your own construction business means tow truck and trailer write off.

    Not sure, I know the street version is 30 lbs. So I would guess and say 20ish.
