3.42 or 4.10?
I am going to place my order for a 2013 Ram 3500 DRW Crew Cab Diesel tomorrow.......3.42 or 4.10 rear end? Putting a 1140 Arctic Fox on the back, towing a 5,000 lb boat or Toyota Tacoma from time to ...

The OP said he wanted a DRW. When I uses Dodge's build site and I include the Aisin Tranny, I have to get 4:10 gears in DRW.
Now if I get the 68RFE tranny and DRW I have to get the 3:42 axle ratio.
The Aisin tranny allows for 64% more input torque(up to 960lbs)than the 68RFE tranny.
Looks like Dodge thinks that the 68RFE tranny is maxed out with the non HO engine,so you have to get the Aisin tranny with the HO engine.
The Dodge site IS totally messed up, I call them to complain about it, they acknowledged it, and said they were working on it.
You can get either the 3.42 or 4.10 with the Aisin transmission with a DRW according to the build site, if you select the 3.73 you are prompted to lose the diesel/Aisin package.
I am very disappointed in the least in the incompleteness of the RAM 2013 website AND still no 2013 brochures....
