Hey i just bought it and im wondering how my 03 2wd dodge ram 1500 with a 4.7L engine and an anti spin rear diff will do off roading???

 

About as poor as possible.

 

What a way to burst someones bubble on something they just bought. Anyways, depends on what type of offroading.. I do more backroading (farmland tractor trails) to get to hunting land.. Its really dry here in south texas so even cutting across cultivated farm lands is pretty easy with 2WD. Get some nice knobby tires and youll do ok pretty much everywhere other than mudding and sand.

 

Bubble Burst #2: Keep a close eye on the LSD if it is factory. It is probably the single biggest Achille's Heel these trucks have. The "C-Clips" that hold it are prone to failure, so much so in fact that it's a matter of "when" instead of "if". When it does, if left unchecked they will take the whole rear end out with it.
Change the diff fluid often and keep a close eye out for metal particles or possibly even broken clips loose in the diff. Replace with a good aftermarket LSD like an Aurburn Gear or Detroit TruTrac. They'll out-perform even a sound Chrysler LSD hands down anyway.

You can do a search for "C-Clip failure" and find a gazillion posts on it...

Not to completely **** on your cornflakes, but other than that and a relatively few other minor issues, you DO have a solid dependable truck and it should serve you well for a number of years...

 

oh dont worry about bursting my bubble or anything i wasnt expecting that much i just got this truck cus it was all i could get approved for at the dealership right now but in six months im gonna go back and trade it for a 4x4 short box dodge 1500 or possible the 2500 power ram

 

I would keep it longer than that, you are going to LOSEA CRAPLOADOF MONEY!!! You won't even have the finance charges paid off if you do that and you will be payin out the ***
