do they still put a sticker in the glove box with that info? my 03 dakota has it.
My 2003 Durango has that too. My '14 Ram does not. Mine was used and did not have the Maroney sticker. However, Carfax had a total list of all the options on mine that were on the sticker and it is a 4x4 3.21. BTW, just returned from vacation putting 4000 miles on the clock with around 21.5 mpg average. I am very pleased with the comfort and fuel usage. The dodgeforum.com has a vin decoder as well. Cri

The decoder says 3.55, although it doesn't mention anti-spin. I guess I need to put this Ram on jacks to see what it's got!

Whatever the tag says is what you have. NO WAY would there be changing of gearsets on the assembly line.
That's what I would've guessed, but wanted to ask anyways. The axle says "P68214859AA 3.21" on the tube. The truck's window sticker and VIN decoder both say 3.55 axle. If the ratio is wrong, now I'm curious if they included my anti-spin or not.

The Equipment Listing tool on the RAM Trucks website says "3.21 Rear Axle Ratio" and "Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle". This document lists every option specifically, and it seems to have everything from the 26Y package listed on the windows sticker except for the 3.55 rear axle ratio. I guess this means I probably have a 3.21 anti-spin rear axle. I wonder if the 3.55 is worth raising a stink about to see if I can get it swapped out? After all, both the window sticker and RAM website say this truck comes with a 3.55 rear axle.

The dealership is checking on the 3.55 rear issue.
Jacked up the rear end and the tires spun in opposite directions. I'm getting mixed input on whether that means open or anti-spin, so I decided to test it the old fashioned way. Two black tracks, it's anti-spin.
Open spins one wheel. If you can see the driveshaft pretty decently and are able to spin the tires while lifted, mark the driveshaft and spin the tire one full rotation and count how many times the driveshaft spins around. See if it spins 3.21 revolutions or 3.55 revolutions.
