Mmmm but still. Judging by the covers my front is a 98, and rear is a 95. Lol

 

[dodge dude94]

By that logic my front is a 94.

Never figured it out, but the axles are near the same age as the truck.

Lol my front ring gear has the same date as cover so that's stock, so front end is a 98. I still haven't took cover off of the rear to see if it also is a 95

I wouldn't doubt if the parts are older but manufactured (assembled) later.
I know for a fact that my front diff is the 98+ style due to the sway bar mounts, but my cover says 94.

Could you post a picture of your sway bar mounts? Then if mine are the same then I'll know if it's a 98 lol

 

[dodge dude94]

Not mine, I'm too lazy


97 older

 

[Merc225hp]

Pass side of the front diff tube there will be a BOM number look it up and it will tell you all you need to know. Might need to clean that area up with a wire brush to find it.

Ok mine is deffinatley 98 or 99. That's what I've been getting parts for anyways and they have worked but nice to have more concrete evidence

97 older

You mean

 

[dodge dude94]

You mean

lol You flipped your bar?

 

[BBartow]

No the 97 and older look like that. Mines flipped.

 

[dodge dude94]

Oh gotcha. The main deal was to show a general idea of what it looked like.
The truck in question in that picture I posted supposedly has a 10in lift.

 

[Crocdocs]

Yea mine is deffinatley the 98-99 so what about the rear?

 

[Crocdocs]

New inner bearing
