Find one with the mileage and in the condition you want and don't worry about the rest! JMHO
Nah you should give him your opinion. You've literally owned ALL different specs of the trucks though out the years.
Im actually curious if you have a fav year.
Oh this is simple. The 2005's are the best and red is the fastest!
The 04's have smaller front brakes and 4.10 gears. (you can upgrade that stuff though)
The 06's have the new front end, weigh a lil bit more, and have a PITA TIPM system that if it starts going bad your kinda screwed.
That was my opinion. I'll purchase any year.
Im looking on buying a 2dr srt 10 6speed and wanted to know if one year is better than the other? Im looking at reliability, strength of transmission, rear end. Any other issues.
Well to be honest, as long as its an RC and not one of them big slow QC's he cant really go wrong. :chain:
'04s do not have any knock sensors.
'04s have TRW 2 Pistons Slide Calipers instead of 05/06 TRW 4 Piston Monoblock Calipers.
'04s have a 4.10:1 Ring and Pinion Gear instead of 05/06 4.56:1. Same Carrier.
'06s have a different front end, controller, weigh more, and seem to be a touch slower than 04/05.
All years have leaky oil cooler and power steering lines.
Everything I can remember, there are maybe 1 or 2 minor differences I can't think of.
However,
'04s were an option on a Ram 1500, not a model. Some insurances companies are cheaper on '04s.
'06s had an option for heated seats.
Ah ha! knew there was more i was forgetting.
'04s have the engine crossmember bolted and welded in. 05/06 do not.
