There was a generation change for Dakota in 1997. Older (95) parts may be different. Any time you are installing a different size engine (or from a different model), there will be all kinds of problems. Starting with the motor mounts, exhaust system, Engine Control module, wiring harness, emissions, transmission, etc, etc, etc. This will be an expensive project.
See this site for info on your Dakota: https://www.allpar.com/trucks/dakota-1997.html
