Identifying an 11.50 rear axle?

[gfresh]

How do I know if I have an 11. 50 rear axle? I ordered a Hellwig swaybar, #7651 and it doesn't fit, though that's the part number for an '06 2500, UNLESS you have the 11. 50 axle. So, besides the swaybar not fitting, how do I check my axle size? I looked on the driver's door post. There are two stickers, both give me details on weights and tires/rim sizes, but nothing about the axle. Any other suggestions?

In the glove box is a sticker that tells you what the truck was built with, or your local dealer can tell you based on the V. I. N.

I can tell you for sure that the '06 has a 11. 5" axle. All trucks with the Cummins motor built after Jan. 1 2004 have the 11. 5" axle as well as the 50 state legal H. O. motor.

Ditto...



The 06' 2500 with Hemi would have the 10. 5".

All Cummins H. O. motors got the 11. 5" rear.
