not true.... a v8 gas 2500 has nothing the same as ctd or v-10 2500, tho they may look the simmilar, almost every part is different, the v8 2500's are lighter duty.... yes there are complaints about dodge steering, but take a look at any other vehical, they all wear out, tho i have worn out a pile of dodge steering parts myself, they still made it longer and more reliable then others that i have owned in the same conditions, my 98 2500 with 7in lift and 35-38 tires and big heavy winch bumper, made it 200k before i went through the steering, and even then it never really gave me any issues other than a little steering play, and its no pavement pounder either

What?? The entire suspension is the same. The diesel does have higher rate coils, but other than that, the only difference is the rear axle (10.5" gas, 11.5" diesel).

I could be wrong about the 3rd gen trucks, sorry wasn't thinkin bout that, but 2nd gens had smaller frames, a light duty front and rear axle, lighter springs, and a few other differences
