Hey guys, I've been googling my heart out but haven't found any very comprehensive comparisons of the Rebel and Outdoorsman besides "The Ram Rebel has more aggressive styling blah blah blah", so I'm hoping someone here would know. The exterior changes are obvious, but I care more about functionality.
It's my understanding that the Outdoorsman has a higher front end, but how is this achieved? Is it the strut? Or a "lifting" spindle? (I've heard both)
The Rebel has air adjustable suspension. What's the "stock" height on the rebel compared to the Outdoorsman? Exactly how much higher can the Rebel be jacked up using the air system? And does it use the same spindles as the Outdoorsman?
The Outdoorsman has "fender flares" as does the Rebel. Are the wheel well openings the same size on both trucks? Does the Rebel have more wheel travel than the Outdoorsman? Do the Rebel/Outdoorsman have larger wheel wells than the other models?
Outdoorsman comes with limited-slip read diff, while I've read on some forums that the Rebel has a locker?
Finally, are there any other differences between the two that I missed?
