Since you are looking for a way to transport a kayak a much better solution for you would be a Yakima Rack and Roll trailer like part # Y08106 as this is rated for highway speeds. As always, exceeding posted speed limits is not recommended, especially when towing.
The CE Smith Boat Trailer for Boats and PWCs # CE48810 that you referenced uses 4.80/4.00-8 sized tires that are rated for 65 miles per hour like most trailer tires. view full answer...

To remove the wheel studs, you would use two lug nuts jammed together, like a reverse of the procedure shown in the video I will link you to. view full answer...

I have a coworker who drives a 2001 Dakota which is the same generation as your 2000. So I checked his owners manual, see pictures. It appears that the bigger V8 for this truck, the 5.9, does not have enough capacity to tow an 8,000 pound trailer. The highest of any model is 6,450 pounds.
Capacity takes into account not only the motor but also the transmission, the rear end gear ratio, wheels, tires, suspension and so on. Basically you would have to replace every major component of the... view full answer...

The bumper mounting brackets are specific to both the frame and bumper which is why you cannot reuse the factory bumper mounting brackets unfortunately. view full answer...

I spoke with my contact at Derale, the manufacturer, to verify what thread size is used on your 2006 Dodge Dakota with the 4.7L V-8. He stated that it is the 3/4 inch - 16, like you referenced.
For an oil cooler that will fit your truck, he recommended the Derale Stacked-Plate Engine Oil Cooler Kit with Sandwich Adapter (Multiple Threads), # D15602, for a stacked-plate design. For a tube and fin design, go with the Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit with Sandwich Adapter (Multiple Threads),... view full answer...
It is not recommended to use multiple hitch adapters or extensions when towing. Most adapters will cause a loss of hitch capacity since they move the actual load further away from the hitch, which increases leverage on the hitch tube.
This applies to both a straight 2-inch extension like the 18-inch Curt # C45796 and to dual-receiver adapters like # MPG544, both of which cost you half the hitch's rated capacity. Multiple adapters also tend to introduce more rattle and noise.

If you were to install the Curt Class 3 Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13145 which has a Gross Trailer Weight of 5,000 lbs and a Tongue Weight of 500 lbs your Dakota would be the limiting factor and you would still only be able to haul up to 4,650 lbs.

The Curt Trailer Hitch, item # 13229, is designed and tested for fit and capacity, likewise the Dodge Dakota and Mitsubishi Raider have their own towing capacity ratings for the vehicle and bumper. In your case the vehicle attachment point is rated for 2,000 pounds capacity so that will be the maximum rating for your vehicle with the bumper mounted option. You always have to go by the lowest rated item in the towing system for maximum capacity.
If you need more capacity than the bumper... view full answer...
