Ramcharger, Trailduster & Power Wagon Grrrr!! Tough Trucks! The Dodge Ramcharger and Plymouth Trailduster were full size SUV's that had good looks and brute strength. The Dodge Power Wagon was comparable to them in toughness, but came in pickup truck form only.

Default limited slips in a 1993 Ramcharger

I have a '93 ramcharger and the rear end grindings when turning, but only after you drive it for a half hour or more. I have been told that it simply needs a fluid change, but i was also told the limited slip is going bad or a bearing is going bad. can anyone shed any light on this subject? thankyou

If you have the Anti-Spin rear end it's a 9.25". Go down to NAPA and pick up a cover gasket and about 3 qts of 80W-90 weight oil. Go down to Chrysler and pick up a bottle of Anti-Spin Friction Modifier, this is the factory additive that is designed to keep the Anti-Spin/Limited Slip plates from chattering on turns. Change all and drive for a couple of days and see what happens. This would be your cheapest first step.

if its a 7 1/4 your are hosed. do NOT put a 7 1/4 back in. when you go to put a bigger one in, you will need different length drive shaft, and other things. each rear end length needs a diff length drive shaft, and other things
