NOTICE: 1997 - 1999 Front and Rear Axle Model Designation changes

The Model Super 44 axle used on the 1996 Viper is a rear mounted, aluminum constructed unit made
for the Viper's independent suspension. The ring gear diameter is 226.06mm. Therefore, the Model 44
axle is designated a 226 RIA.

Some other letter combinations are as follows:
RBA = Rear, beam, aluminum
FBI = Front, beam, iron
FBA = Front, beam, aluminum
RIA = Rear, independent, aluminum
FIA = Front, independent, aluminum

2000 - 2002 Front Axle Model Designation changes

The 2000 model year Dakota and Durango use a new front axle, the C205F.
C = Corporate
205 = Ring gear diameter in millimeters
F = Front Axle

When ordering Dana/Spicer Differential Parts provide bill of material number. This number is stamped on your right hand side axle tube. It's a number like 603XX-X, 604XX-X or 605XX-X. With this number you can tell exactly what components the factory used in the assembly of your differential.
