Anything in particular you don't understand? I thought mine was pretty straightforward.

SOS... I dont know a whole lot about car/trucks but it says I have a 3.92 axle and a 9.25 rear axle.

Jason just go to dodge.com and you can ask then from there I got mine in less than 24 hrs.

maalna, the 3.92 is the ratio - for every 3.92 rotations of the driveshaft, the wheels will make one rotation. If you were to compare that to one of their other options, the 3.55, those of us with the 3.92 have trucks that will end up having higher RPMs at the same speed as those with a 3.55. Hope that makes sense to you - basically the engine turns more often to get the wheels to turn the same number of times. The benefit of this is that in theory, we have slightly higher torque than someone with a 3.55.
The 9.25 is the diameter (in inches) of the ring gear inside the differential.

Getting a build sheet is a good idea, it always has information that you can use on it and it comes in handy when it comes time for resale.

Yeah i just got mine, only took a couple hours. Actually I just went and dug through all the paperwork that came with the truck when I bought it and the build sheet is pretty much the same as the window sticker with a few small details added.
