Yeah, I did some digging up. Were the HD mirrors called "Power Heated Foldaway Mirrors?"

There's a hitch receiver listed but it wasn't standard so that explains it. Thing is I came in thinking there was a tow package that has everything included for towing but it looks like the towing options are sold separately.

Those dumbo mirrors were also standard equipment on the Rams as well, FYI
As far as I know you could order the tow mirrors as a stand alone option for all years.

Just search "03 durango mirror" then you'll just have to sift through them. People on ebay usually aren't intelligent enough to know that they're selling to name them properly.

I'm probably forgetting some things that I can't think of right now, but 3.92 axle ratio, separate transmission cooler, tow mirrors, and tow hitch.

My 2001 had the Towing package and it had 3.55s. Had everything else though.

Actually per dodge the axel ratio doesn't come part of the tow package.

For example, my durango is a 3.55. I too once thought tow package = 3.92 but that's not how they did things !!

7 to 4 pin wiring adaptor
160-amp alternator
750-CCA battery

Hmm... that's odd, I had figured the 3.92s would be standard since they increase the towing capacity. Mine has 3.55s too, but I figured it was just because the hitch wasn't installed at the factory, but at the dealer after the fact.

Well the durango isn't the best tow vehicle to start with so..not like the gearing matters that much!!

It was a $40 option to go from 3.55 to 3.92.

It may not be a cummins ram, but it can still tow more than a new exploder (only 5000lbs, wtf?!) and most other smaller suvs out there.
