Default 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 heavy duty suspension?

I am trying to order a new tie rod kit for my 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 4 x 4. How do I tell if it has a heavy duty suspension?

Thank you...

Does it have a Dana 44 or a Dana 60 differential in the front? If its a Dana 60, then it's the HD front end.

Two different steering setups, even on the HD suspension. There is the 'inverted y', and then the "t" steering. See which one ya got before ordering parts.
