hello, i am brand new to this forum and i own a 2001 ram off road package. how does this truck differ from regular rams? i know it is lifted from the factory.... but what does it have for axles, and how is it lifted? any help would be greatly appreciated

 

I believe it has coil spacers and leaf spring blocks for the lift. Rear axel is a Chrysler 9.25, front is a Dana 44. I believe all the offraod packages came with a 4.10 final gear ratio also.

 

I know the chevy z71 has a rear locker that only activates in 4lo but I would think dodge too.

 

the OR's didnt come with front spacers, or lockers..

OR's came with the skid plates (gastank and tcase), 4.10 and LSD rear, 265's standard, and a gussetted/trussed D44.

also came 2" higher but with an AAL inthe rear and taller springs up front.

 

I thought they came with 275's?

 

Mine did according to the build sheet from Dodge.

 

skid plates, dana 44 and chrysler 9.25 with 4.10 gears. 275/70r17 tires. low gear steering box. 17x8 aluminum rims. special stickers, lifted slightly higher then a stock ram. 5.9 nagnum motor.....and i think that's it...

 

Alsooff roads cameequippedwith auxillary transmission oil cooler.

 

yes tranny cooler was part of a tow package that the or's came with including tow hooks etc.

 

yes. belated corection on my part.... brain fart... at the same time i was writing my post i was messing around at tire rack check prices on a few things

what i meant to write was 275's

all appologizes



another oddball... my truck has/had neither tow package (hitch/wiring) or the aux cooler

i had to add both msyelf... all i had was the stock rad. cooler..
