Long time lurker, new member though. I’ve got a 2012 1500 Sport CC 3.55 axle and it’s been my baby for going on five years. Extremely reliable, and this forum has been really useful when I do maintenance and stuck on something.
I’m in the market for a new 1500 that needs to have a rear locker or I’ve been thinking a 2500 tradesman PW package. I hunt fish kayak, etc and have two boys and a hefty chocolate lab that needs his room too haha. I’m kind of stuck between 1/2 and 3/4 ton, and I’d just like some input on what others might’ve done in similar spots. The wife will probably drive it as much as me as it’ll be a third vehicle.
