Dodge cant keep diff's, ball joints, tie rod ends, rack&pinions or anything else aam builds since the swap from dana :1
Drive by a dodge dealership right now and tell me how many complete diffs are outside waiting for waranty returns
Now if your talking pre 03 then I'd call them pretty even.
I'm not even going to touch the trans, the 5r110 will last longer then any dodge trans ever made even if it was filled with gravel

Re: Have you driven a Ford lately?
I am a ford guy but in 02 I bought a new duramax with the allison and I still love that truck. It tows the corolla back and forth to the drags like it is towing a lawnmower. I have a 7.3 in my car carrier and it has been a good truck but I like the duramax better. I went to the drags in New york last weekend and had to tow a eclips back( he broke his rear diff),He rode with me on the ride back and never knew it was a diesel. I also like the ride, nice and smooth!
