Default Axle types, just making sure...

I'm a converted GM guy, so I need to make sure of something...

I just recently purchased a 2001 dodge ram 1500 sport with off-road package. I have the 4.10 gears in it. I am pretty sure these half tons all had the 9.25 ring gear corporate rear end, but I wanted to make sure. can someone confirm what I have for front and rear axles? i want to price master kits for each very soon. thanks

So even if I have the 4.10 setup with the off-road package, its' still a 9.25 rear?

thought maybe they put the 4.10's in a D60...

Nope. Chrsler 9.25 axle in all 1500's. You just got a better gear ratio from the factory, with larger tires, and a bit of a suspension lift.
