Looks good! I talked to Steve awhile back about my F1 getting the Dakota treatment. He wanted a ton of moola for the job. I guess there are/were(?) some problems with the narrow f! frame. Has he squared that away?
I hope to install my dakota crossmember before thanksgiving. Summers over back to the garage! I am trying to locate some tubular a-arms for mine no luck so far.

We won't discuss the amount of money needed to straighten my frame. The basic crossmember and install was not, what I would consider, a ton of moola. And I'm not a rich gold-chainer by any means. When you consider the time and skill needed to do this install, Steve is pretty reasonable.
Since, my frame is an original F1 frame, and the Dakota crossmember is installed, I guess you could say Steve has the install squared away.

Industrial Chassis offers a set of tubular A-arms as an option for the Dakota IFS. I don't think anybody else makes a true Dakota installation, so Steve would be your only choice.

I need to clarify about the tubular A-arms Industrial Chassis makes for the F1 Dakota crossmember. Steve makes them to use with a coil-over-shock and NOT the stock Dakota coil spring. I talked to him this morning and that is what he confirmed to me. I stand corrected.
