Jef, If you will take a look in your glovebox,there should be a code sheet
on the inside of the door which will have listed either "axle-corporate
8.25" or "axle-corporate 9.25" or something to that effect,which will
determine what rear axle you have.The Dakotas run a hybrid Dana 30/35
differential up front.The transfer case should have a little round tag
riveted to the back of the case,and on that tag it will have the case's
model description and serial number on it.Look for ot in the upper left hand
side on the back of the 'case.Hope this helps,

Vic, I think, asked a few 4x4 questions to which Kyle Kozubal provided an
informative reply ... I've a few more questions.
Does anyone know exactly what model of front and rear axles are in my 99 V8,
auto w/ part-time 4x4 (wh, unfortunately, still has an open diff.)? The
rear has ten bolts, which I believe is a Chrysler 8.25", but I'm not sure.
I believe the front is also a ten-bolt. Also, can I determine if I've got
an NV231HD transfer case, versus a standard NV231, from a visual
examination?
Thanks
