Hi all, hope I'm not hi-jacking the thread but can someone explain the difference between a ram 1500 and a 1500 sport edition? Looking at one close to home on craigslist and it looks like a ram 1500 except it has 18 inch tires. Thanks in advance for your input. deadeye

 

99-01 sport package
quad light bulbs in the headlights, the front bumper, the grille is different and back bumper is color matched and so are the tailights, and badging


thats pretty much it

 

once again.

Offroad package includes (Most of which are mentioned)

- Color Scheme Lights Bumpers painted to match also fog lights
- Heavy Duty package
- 4.10 gears
- Limited Slip in rear axle
- Trussed front axle (D44)
- Tighter gear ratio in the steering box, less turns of the steering wheel.
- Aux tranny cooler (HD Package i believe)
- Heavy Duty Alt, Battery, radiator (HD Package also)
- 5.9 Engine
- Special Badges
- 1 inch factor lift (Most say two but paper work says 1)
- 17 inch wheels

Off road models only came with 4.10's.



Power wagons only come with 4.56's.

 

i thought they did and that was what i ment on my response was that it was standard equip for off road only

 

Oh, sorry bout that man, I quoted the wrong comment. Its fixed now

 

olyelr is correct, the "Off Road Edition" package always came with 4.10 gears, it was only available with that package.

Otherwise your options were 3.21, 3.55, or 3.92. Unless, of course, you're talking aftermarket things done by POs.

 

When i emailed dodge about my build sheet it only took them like 3 days to get back with mine after i anserwed thier questions about when i got it and if i bought it from a private party or dealership

 

not a problem man we all do it

 

Mines got the 5.2 engine
