So axle pumpkin size has to do with the gearing? I can't find anything in the FSM regarding this.

Either axle could have LSD, either axle could have 3.55 or 3.92 ratios.

Non LSD is the 8.25" rearend, LSD is 9.25". You most likely have non LSD given the VIN and dealer verifying.

The Mopar synthetic gear oil is $26 a quart! and it will take 5 quarts to cover both of my diff's.

Lol! Not sure about Mopar, but coming from a Nissan world. The pricing they see on the screen is dealer cost and MSRP. Anything in between is called the squeeze factor, meaning how much can they squeeze yer boys before you scream. When driving Nissans, parts dude quotes price, I say no dealer across town gives me a Car Club discount of 20%. Works everytime. Anything dealer-service is rape. The only thing I buy from any dealer is something "factory" I can not source otherwise. I will use junkyards, forums, ebay and aftermarket first everytime Dealer is last resort always, especially for service items. I'll go and buy my own fairydust, thank you very much.

So you're absolutely correct - parts from a dealership are overpriced and negotiable!
and i wish that i did but as it turns out cannot afford to put that kind of money into getting one for it
