  Why would they put such a small pig in the rear? Especially with that
engine and tire combination? The Ram comes with a 44, but that's in the
front, and even then, a fairly popular mod seems to be ditching it for a 60.
Maybe its a show only truck? Doesn't seem likely though since they went
through the expense of lockers front and rear... Color me confused. :-)
