I dunno about that, I think during some of those "up for sale" times, Chrysler used "whatever they had laying around" on some of these trucks. Heard from a very few guys with 4x2 QCs who swear they got steel driveshafts as well.
But as a rule, you'll find an aluminum one.
Might just be that you are in the minority with one on your 4x2 or it may be that you are right and RCs use steel ones. I've never been under a RC Ram since my old '98 RCSB 4x4, so I dunno...

Wish I had a steel driveshaft. I figure I'll break it eventually, then I'll have an excuse to go get a custom one done.

That video is CLASSIC!

That's like our old GMC dually. Yeh, it wasn't a dodge. But a 454, Dana 70 HD, can you really go wrong? It weighed 7,000 pounds, our old racecar trailer weighed 8,000 pounds, had a weight sharing hitch, it would go up the Grapevine highway in california without breaking a sweat. The axle tubes were 4", the 2 piece driveshaft weighed more than I could lift, was probably 5" in diameter, looked like a friggin 18 wheeler driveshaft. The slip on the carrier wouldn't come apart, we had to use 2 roller creepers to move the driveshaft in the shop when we serviced the trans. Dad and I together couldn't carry the d@mn thing.
