I found out today that my truck has a corp 9.25LD rear end with the anti spin differential. I know this may be a stupid ? but I was wondering what the LD stands for? Thanks in advance!!!

Some Ram Van's had the 5 lug corp axle and is rated as a 2500. Last time I looked at the door tag, the rear axle had a rating of close to 5000lbs as I recall.

All 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500s had Dana 44 front axles and Chrysler Corporate 9.25 (LD) rear axles. There were no changes to that until the 3rd gens came around in 2002-2003 (model years).
