Default Drive wheel

Which rear wheel is the drive wheel on a 2002 ram van? It's the passenger side wheel, right?

If it's an open differential, it's a 50/50 torque split. However, if it only take 10ft/lbs to make one tire spin... that's all the other tire gets too.

On a peg leg, yes. It's a function of torque bias.
