i have a stock 2004 dodge dakota with a 4.7l V8 2wd

i want to make this an off-road truck i know 4wd is better but working with what i got

i went to the desert this holiday weekend and first time i took my truck to do some stuff and it was fun as hell and wish i coulda done more so i want to beef it out a ***

anyways right now its completely stock and i was wondering what kind of suspension (brands please ), tires, and good lights for some night driving, and what kinda lifts i should get (i heard leveling kit is good enough for a small truck), roll cage and anything else i might need

if you can give me a general idea of what this would all cost that would be nice to and refer me to a few good brands for which item

well there really isn't a lift kit for a 2004 Dakota, you can get coil spring spacers for it to level the front with the back. There is also a body lift kit for it so you can put up to 35's on it. If you want to do a serious lift put a solid axle underneath the front. As for tires BF Goodrich at ta ko are good for sand also good year makes decent sand tires.
