i had to replace the front right brake hose. 00'-01' are the only ones that fit. plus the stock air fliter has the valve cover hose go to the top instead of the bottom like the ones on 94'-99'. that is the reason i am trying to find if there are more diffrences.

dodgeram07 is correct. Those are differences in the 2000-2001 model years as opposed to earlier, nothing to do with the fact that its a sport model.

You'll find that there were a few differences/changes in 2000-2001 as Dodge prepared to switch to a new body style. Brakes were better, the Off-Road edition was offered, the exhaust system was changed, and various other smaller ones.

Your initial question was the difference between the sport and a non sport, in a 2001 model. Now you are asking the difference between different years throughout the 2nd gen. What years are you talking about?

Many things changed throughout the years. Most things after 2000 were the same, while there were some changes between 94-97-99.

Maybe some of the experts here could confirm/deny this for me. I was on an engine specs website and they listed horsepower (2001 model) as follows:
5.2L Magnum 230 HP
5.9L Magnum 235 HP
5.9L Magnum 245 HP (Sport model only)
Gentlemen, what say you? LOL

1994-1997 5.2 220 and 300 tq
1994-1997 5.9 230 and 330 ft lb

1998+ 5.2 230 and 300 qt
1998+ 5.9 245 and 335 ft lb

this was due to a diff cat back exhaust also the 5.9 had a cam change
