    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Dana 80 Questions: Please Help!

    Thanks Thanks everyone for your responses. The rear is definitely a stout piece. I looked at everything and all seems okay. I checked the run out and gear pattern. I just get real nervous about parts breakage, especially if it can be avoided. I imagine driving happily down the interstate...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Dana 80 Caps

    Jared That info was huge! The caps were not only pointed in the wrong direction, but they were on the wrong sides. I talked to the guy who sold the rear to me and he did say that he took the caps off. Apparently, he wanted to part it out, but didn't know how to take the axles out. He...

    You won't believe this I have a '97 and when I pulled off the dash panel to look at why the lighter and auxillary plug didn't work, I found that there were no wires connected to either of them. I had to rifle around a bit inside the dash to find a lead with a plug, and only found the one for...

    Can someone please direct me to a place that has compressor and clutch rebuild kits for a '97 Ram Diesel.
