but its still only puts out an extra 40 ft/lbs of torque which does not seem like a lot w/ the numbers that we are talking about here but then im not anywheres near an expert on torque

40 ft lbs of torque makesa signifigant difference off the line.

Sorry I was a little late getting back here! Been very busy at work and not monitoring this forum as much as I used to!

Most of the time, if you can only operate one speed either in low or high, it is a good chance the resistor has gone out.

One poster posted something about moisture. So when you replace your BMR, check the wiring harness sockets and the wiring itself to look for any signs of deteriotion due to moisture. The wiring harness can contribute to continuous failures of your BMR.

I agree. But you must make sure you are comparing stock to stock durangos on the same trim level (IE: 4x4 vs 4x4, etc), a 5.9 will always outpull a 4.7 on the road. If there are no difference in performance between the two engines, people would not buy a 5.9.

I agree with both of your previous posts. About the BMR, I took it out and noticed the wires going into the pigtail are deteriorated and making contact with each other. This is the problem for sure. I already purchased another BMR but am waiting for the pigtail to come in tomorrow. I will replace both to be sure. Thanks again........

I have 1999 Dodge Durango with the same blower fan resistor pack problem. I have seen a picture of the 2001 Durango fan location , but mine looks different. Where can I find my resistor pack?
