Are the Ram 1500 rearends really this weak?
I have around 144,000 miles on my 2004 Hemi Ram 1500 Quad Cab. My family and I decided to take a road trip with our 20ft camper from Springfield Missouri to Pensacola Florida for a week....about 1600...

Did you replace the fluid with full synthetic? Were you towing at high speeds? I have a rear diff temp gauge and speed has a direct affect on the diff temp.
Towing from Florida all the way through Mississippi at around 65mph...fighting a mean head wind the entire time......I'm sure that extra load didnt help.
And yes, before I left I put fresh full synthetic 75w-140 in it.
