What does a differential ring and pinion do?
The pinion gear is driven by the driveshaft and meshes with the ring gear, which turns power toward the rear axle shafts. The Dorman 697-310 set supplies both gears.
Does this ring and pinion fit the 1994-2010 Dodge Ram 1500?
Yes. It is listed for the 1994-2010 Dodge Ram 1500, the 1994-2008 Dodge Ram 2500 and the 1968-1978 Dodge Charger. The "Vehicles it fits" section shows every listed vehicle.
What gear ratio is this set?
It has a 4.1 gear ratio. Ring and pinion gears are made to a specific ratio, so compare it with the ratio your rear axle uses before ordering.
What comes in the box?
The package contains a ring gear and a pinion gear. An installation kit is not included, so check the vehicle service information for any other parts the job requires.
What are signs a ring and pinion may need replacing?
Whining, grinding or howling from the rear differential may be signs of worn gears. Worn bearings and low fluid can cause similar noises, so diagnose the source before replacing.
