I thought when I first read about this and was checking into it someone told me that my truck didn't have it for some reason?

corporate 9.25 is the axle type thats under your rear end, its just the size and company make of your axle.

And yes, the stock lsd is known to grenade, but again, it doesnt always do it, mine is perfect at 101k, check it every 12000 miles and this last one was within the last 6000 miles.

So, corporate 9" (doesn't say 9.25") is just the axle and has nothing to do with the differential? If I don't see anything on the sticker about differential, LSD, anti-spin, whatever, do I not have one? Still confused here...

Call your local Dodge dealership parts department and ask them to look up your VIN and they can tell you everything about your truck. As noted above, go there and get a build sheet. If you change your differential fluid you will need to know if you have LS because you have to add an additive to the oil.

It is abbreviated for Corporate 9.25LD (light Duty) same differential that rams 1500 Rams have had for the past 2 gen.
No Anti-spin listing means you do not have a time bomb in the rearend.

Go here http://www.dodge.com/webselfservice/...m%28%27R%27%29

Click on send us an email. Ask them for a copy of the build sheet and be sure to include your full vin# and they usually reply within a day or two.

Sorry to dig up this thread but I was getting something out of my glove box and just thought I'd snap a quick pic of the equipment tag in there. Can anyone tell me what I have, if not the infamous LSD with potential issues? Or, if you know you have the LSD in question, does your equipment tag look like this?
