RE: looking for cup holder
The hinge section on my cupholder was "broken" when I bought the truck 3 years ago. There was a crack in the hinge assembly and the cup holder would flop all the way to the floor whenever a cup was placed in it. I called the dealer and got sticker shock when I priced a new cup holder for over $100!
So being the cheap (and usually resourceful) bastard that I am, I simply installed some beaded chain with eyelets on each end and screwed it all in place. It all folds up when not in-use just like it's supposed to and I never have to worry about any drink being too heavy for it.

Why buy a new one? Have you priced what a new one costs? I've even watched these things go for nearly $75 on Ebay!!!! [sm=insomnia.gif]
I was lucky and able to get the material from work for free, but the whole investment would have cost less than $5 at any hardware store.

Dunno, is this the kind you need:
97 Dodge Ram dash cup holder
If so, I would keep looking on ebay for a 'Buy Now' item.
Sooner or later, one will pop around at the right price.
I just bought the OEM radio cassette for $40 w/ shipping, so just keep looking and check back often.
Also as a general rule, '94 - '02 Dodge Ram 1500 / 2500 / 3500
