Plus it’s not like that maint book is much help anyway. Heck the dodge service manual for free online is a ton more help than an owners manual that says “seek your nearest dodge dealer for service”...

Yeah. I am writing all the information down like the maintenance schedule, bulbs number, and ideas in the notepad so I get the information when I need it.

Found light bulbs for the fog lights today at AutoZone since Walmart ran out. It is Sylvania/Fog Light Bulb (885) but it said 50 watts not 55 watts. Guys at AutoZone tried to tell me that I need 889 factory bulb and I told them that I don't want the original bulbs that was in the Durango with 27 watts. Here is the link of the bulb that I looked at today.

You won't notice the difference of 180 lumens..

Just get the 50w bulbs and call it good.

Ok. Can't wait until 2 weeks then I can make my first order from Rockauto for a set of fog lights.

I just noticed on Saturday when I helped my friend's put his 1 piece headlights in on his Durango. His 2000 instrument gauge cluster had voltage and oil pressure gauges on his and my 2003 don't have them. Why is it different since both of these is 1st generation Durango?

For 01-03 some of the base models didn't have those gauges I believe. They also stopped putting numbers on those gauges in 01-03.

Yeah. Base models don't have those gauges. Along with missing some other neat features

Man that sucks. I might try to figure out something to get oil pressure gauge on my Durango.

You might just be able to swap out the cluster with a different one, I don't imagine they'd have changed the electronics and wiring just to save money on 2 needles and servos.
