Sorry Dixie, but with the 11.5" rear diff there aren't many choices. I did a search on Randy's Ring and Pinion and came up with this. The Yukon oneis what Dodge uses at the factory, and there is nothing lame about it. It is very heavy duty, doesn't require special additives in the gear oil, and doesn't click or grab going around corners.

I heard that ARB was developing an air locker for the 11.5, but it's not available yet. On the ARB website, under Dodge applications it shows "NA" for the part number, with a note that it will be available in 2007. Anyone have an update?

Could do what I just read in Power Diesel about replacing the 600 pound A&A axle with a sheet metal rear end and uses a Ford9 inch chunk.

And you save 400 pounds, might empty your wallet, but you can have any gear ratio you want.

Buy the electric lockers from Dodge (the ones that come in the power wagon) put on mag hytec covers and go to work. you now have a selectable locker. You dont want a detroit in your rear if its icy and slips the lighter rear end of the truck should make for a fun ride. Just my .02
The Power Wagon only came with a Hemi, right? Did it use the 11.5" rear?
