I didn’t know you could make this year model Durango look that good. Motivates me to wanna do some work to my ‘01 I have. You did an awesome job. It’s beautiful!
Thanks. I have always liked the 1st Gen Durangos, could not stand the 2nd Gen, has to be Dodges ugliest vehicle in that time, I see why they scrapoed it and went back to the drawing board... I knew it could look good just had to get to it after driving it for 3 years. 😁👍
awesome build.. just wondering if you gave up any handling w the shackles and key lift....would love to do this but really enjoy the stock handling. Thanks for any info!
Hey, I know that rig my father-in-law has two shops by ya. Love the Durango!!! I have an 01 R/T I'm building. I'd love to pick your brain sometime and maybe get some tips on the build.
Excellent work I really liked how your Durango looks 🥇 🤝🏽 I have a question to see if you can help me 🤝🏽 I have a 2003 Dodge durango 4.7 4x4 factory suspension, I would like to know if I can fit 20x9 rims and 275 / 55r20 tires, can they be installed without modification? thank you very much for your help in advance🤝🏽
Even with a mild lift you will have to do some trimming on the front bumper and inner fender liner on the back side. I cut them carefully and smooth lines to make them nit so noticeable.
No they would not fit. What you dont see in the pictures are very careful and clean trimming back of the wheel well and front bumper, to clear with out rubbing during turns.
@@murcieme new DIY'er....dumb question.... you wouldn't happen to know if your 2001 tire specs would be the same as my 2002? And if they are... what are they, and what should I look for in an after market rim?
@@robertcasianosr I really can't stand that Dodge didn't just use the Ram 1500 bolt pattern, instead Dode Durango and Dakota use a a 6 lug, but not the widely used 6 lug from Chevy or even Ford. No these use the small 6 lug patter of 6x4.5 very hard to find in the aftermarket or used market of wheels. I just went on ebay and typed in the bolt pattern from lowest to highest price set of 4 not 1 or 2 be careful and watch out for the quantity.
@@murcieme I found some bad azz aftermarket tail lights for mine and it completely changed the profile from the back…however currently tryna sell mine lol
@@fiveflames2636 cool, funny they share the same taillights as the Caravan. Yeah l wanted something else, l can't remember weather l didn't like what was available or didn't want to spend the money they wanted.

Thank you, I am glad I can inspire and encourage others to do the same. 👍
Nice,id tint the windows 5-20% all around to match the black wrapping around the Durango,Super sweet build

That’s awesome I have a silver 01 lifted 3 inches on 32’s and love it also just got a 02 Jeep Liberty that will get the same
Thats pretty cool. 👍👍👍
It needs some nice oak cabinets inside... Great job old friend.
Oak cabinets? Lol oak was nice back in the 80's-90's lol
Wow sick Durango
Thanks, I agree. I had help too. 😁
This looks soooo good! Really makes me wonder what a good paint job costs in my area, gotta make some calls now lol.
So, what have you found for paint jobs in your area?
Wow looks great
Thank you
im so doing this to mine, but first gotta fix the electrical drain lol
Sweet.....
That thing gotta Hemi? 😅😅😅
Looks good Bro! do you think that same size tire on a stock suspension would rub a lot? how did that screw trick work out for you?
I had to trim the front bumper and rear inner fender.
awesome build.. just wondering if you gave up any handling w the shackles and key lift....would love to do this but really enjoy the stock handling. Thanks for any info!
Nothing noticeable. Feels like stock ride.
@@murcieme thank you

@@pedrosoto8733 appreciate it, enjoy your project.
Hey man badass job looks perfect but I wanted to know where did u get those decal stickers the white black and dodge stickers?
Thanks, I appreciate it, I found them on ebay.
Let me ask another question... if you DIDN'T lift it, would those 20's have fit? Or would they have fit WITHOUT the lift?
No they would not fit. What you dont see in the pictures are very careful and clean trimming back of the wheel well and front bumper, to clear with out rubbing during turns.
I really love the look what size tires and wheels are you rolling on if its okay...
Rewatch video at 2 min 50 seconds
I have Durango 2003 loocking youtube Durango 2003 flashing. I love my Durango
Is that legal? Like emergency vehicles... 👍
@@murcieme yes I know✔️
What lift kit do you have? I have a 2001 and I’m having trouble trying to find a lift kit for it.
Torsion keys & Shackle extension or go with an add a leaf
Great build. Are those Anso replacement headlights? I need to upgrade mine. I bet it was easy to sell. Too bad I found this video so late.
Thank you... I dont recall the Brand and I was not happy with them either. But they were better than the ugly oem's
Well it took longer than it should have to sell and I only got $9,500, should have got more like $12,000. Paint job alone would cost that minimum.
Hi, just wondering how much did the whole project cost, thanks
Well I havnt added up all the $ I have into it but I did most the work myself and my brother & I prepped and he painted.
Lol you are in our first gen page on facebook ,this is a really nice durango ,sad you got rid of it if I am not mistaking?
I believe so, I joined several groups. Thanks appreciate your kind words 👍
And yes I just sold it.
@@murcieme yeah we were talking the other day bout it on the group ,mine is the one on the group cover
Yeah nice lift on your Durango btw. Looks good. Made the cover 👍
where did you get the tires? I couldn't find them online
Thanks, Originally found on ebay showed to local tire shop and they got them for me.
Radar Renegade R/T 275/55/R20
Type into ebay search bar they will come up. Under $800 for a set of 4
I have a 01 Limited addition I wanna do this to it
Thanks, you should 😁
What lift size did you put? Brand? I’m looking for lift for my 2003
3" Torsion Key lift with shackle lift for the rear on ebay. Will have to look up the Brand when I get a chance.
@@murcieme does shackle give you stiff feel on rear?
@@FldigzFLdigz no keeps your oem ride thats why I did the shackle rather than the add a leaf which I prefer
@@murcieme thanks for info. Now the issue I will have is trying to convince wife to lift it, we already have a lifted truck lol
@@FldigzFLdigz just show her this one. Who wouldn't want to do a mild lift with wheels and tires???
By chance where can I get a set of rims & tires like those
I purchased the wheels on ebay, and tires locally
@@murcieme new DIY'er....dumb question.... you wouldn't happen to know if your 2001 tire specs would be the same as my 2002? And if they are... what are they, and what should I look for in an after market rim?

You can always google search any vehicle bolt pattern. Type in the year make & model then type, bolt pattern? With a question mark.
@@murcieme much appreciated.
Roof rack link ? Or info
Ebay
What paint did you use for the undercarriage?
Satin Black (spray can) surfaces well preped.
Do it rub!!! Do you think you could of ran 20x10
Just a little on the back side of the wheel well but I am planning on trying to put a screw to concave that spot inward just to clear it from rubbing.
@@murcieme okay did...I have a 00 4x4 with custom...I have it on my channel...I definitely like those wheels..
@@iamdjlee1837 your message is broken up, not sure what your trying to say exactly.
im sure soon after shooting this video you upgraded those hideous tail lights ? lol
No l sold it , not much options on these for taillights
@@murcieme I found some bad azz aftermarket tail lights for mine and it completely changed the profile from the back…however currently tryna sell mine lol
@@fiveflames2636 cool, funny they share the same taillights as the Caravan. Yeah l wanted something else, l can't remember weather l didn't like what was available or didn't want to spend the money they wanted.
I fo on the roof rack plz
Ebay...
I will have to look up the details when I get a chance.
Would definitely appreciate that
