Anyone know if the 2013s will have the same ZF rear end and front diff as the 2011-12s?
I hope if Chrysler keeps using the same setup that the aftermarket will start supporting them.
Why didn't I buy that used 2010 Sport on the lot that day???

I'm assuming the 12's and 13 axles are the same. You could always go ask the dealer, they probably wouldn't mind telling you if you hinted that you might be thinking about a trade... even if your not :********:

Just dont ask a salesman this question because those guys barely know how to turn the key and get the truck started.

I was gonna say the same thing! Go to the parts department and have them pull the diagram.

Also, the front axle changed in 2012. It went from a 205mm to a 215mm. I think it will be quite some time before a company offers this frontend. The ring gear is welded to the carrier so it will have to be a complete setup. I went ahead and swapped in a 2010(2011 would work too) front diff assembly so I could do the 4.56's. Truck flies now

Sorry for bringing this up from the past, but you swapped a 2011 front diff into a 2012? How did you do that? I want to put a 2011 into my 2013 for 4.10s
