Hey guys my 02 1500 had the trac lock come apart and trash the housing. I can not find a 02 and up housing to save my life. Does any ones know the difference in the 01 and older axles. When buying gears/set up kit There is a break at 01 and up and 2000 and down.

Can I used the older housing? I have no problem moving perches or other fab work just need to make sure I can bolt my brakes to it

I am re gearing it to 4.56 (I already have them and the set up kit for the 02 but I can exchange them if needed)

Thanks in advance

 

looks like 01 for the pinion flange. What was the first year for rear disks?

 

maybe van housings?

 

Welcome to DF.

First, before anything else, please read this:

I will move this to the 2nd gen section for ya.

 

I may be wrong but didn't Chrysler start using a different brand rear in 02? I know the 2500 and 3500's got AAM axles.Anything can be done though.

 

Thanks I was not sure where to post since it was about older axles in 3rd gen

 

02 1500 is still 9.25

I ended up getting a gm 14 bolt and ill swap my front 5 lug outers out to 8 lug and be good to go since my 02 is already solid axle swapped with a Ford Dana 44.

Brand loyalty .........what is that lol
