1 Ton 3500 diesel plow, heavy plow spring, tag number 47, Mapor part number 52039047 load rating of 2036 lbs, pair capty 5,200 lbs. And tag #48 part number 52039048 is rated at 2236 lbs. The higher rated spring goes in the drivers side. Part numbers are from the 2001 parts book and might up-date.

See if these numbers match up with what Jimythefan has.

Wow, nice work. Those are the part numbers I used.

How did you find that info? It's not in the parts manual, and even the dealer was no help. It sure would have saved me some time.

Sorry I would have helped earlier if I had known you needed a part number.

On page 53 of the 2001 parts book you will see part number 23, under that part number you will find a list of tag numbers, just had to figure out what tag number meant what for spring rates and so on. Once that is done go back to the parts book look up the tag number and you have a Mopar part number.

Remember that most manufacturers only support vehicles for ~9-10 years. Those part numbers may be useless next year. The 2nd gens will be out of that window. We're already limited on what parts are still available as it is.

That's the first thing my grandfather said after he learned what year my truck was...

Him: What year is it?
Me: 2001
Him: That means they don't make parts for it anymore.....
