The TRUTH is OUT THERE !!

From : Annonymous

Q: tbone wrote i am unaware of dodge ever putting an awd transfer case in a ram 1500. do you mean a 4wd either way it really shouldnt make any difference. since your truck should be using the pos dc 9 1/4 rear the limited slip unit is the same size as the open unit and will fit in the existing case and that is the good . the bad is that it is not all that easy to change it. i thought the same thing tbone. i was surprised when i was looking at the truck prior to buying it that the dash had a button with 3 settings awd 4hi and 4lo. i didnt think they offered that in the trucks. i know they offer it in the new durangos. how hard is it to change the guts are you positive the unit will mount in the existing housing does the limited slip unit have any special mounting brackets internally for the clutches or is the mounting points the exact same as the current open unit are the axles the same too im actually looking for the whole rear housing from a junk yard 02 - 05 disc to disc based on what one guy at the dealer told me. now if thats wrong ill just order the limited slip unit from dodge parts and have it swapped out if its that easy as you say. ace .
