I could find nothing on the window sticker or elsewhere. This is all I could find on the rear axle:



And this etched into the tube:





Anyone? Thanks!

Go to your dealer, ask the parts department or service to print you out a build sheet. All they need is your vin number. The sheet will list the specs on your vehicle. Don't have a clue from your photos.

Being that you have a 2500 series I would hope that it's a Dana 60 with 3.91 or 4.10 gears or close to it but I guess one would never know these days. It's a much stronger rear end than the 9.25 in our 1500 Rams. I'm gonna guess that it's a 4.10 ratio...that's what I would want in it anyway. I just tried to build a 2500 regular cab short bed on the dodge site and no can do...is it a regular or quad cab? Also there are three gear ratio options so you could have a 342, "373", or a 410. Being that there is no opt for a 3.91, I would think it's a Dana 60 But... build site says 10.5 rear end and only the 4.10 has the only opt for limited slip. I also noticed that there was an opt for a 5 speed or a 6 speed auto for diesels...I'd like to check the six speeds out. So let's hope you have at least a 3.73 or 4.10 with limited slip...that would be nice as well!
