No, the Curt trailer hitch # 13229 will not fit your 2000 Dodge Dakota but we do have other trailer hitches that will fit such as # C13280. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

If you need to add a trailer connector you can use # 118329. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation for you.
