Hello,
I'm going to order a '98 Dakota 4X4 V8 (couldn't find the perfect '97
leftover), but i'm not sure what axle ratio to get. Is there a
difference in acceleration with 3.55 vs. 3.92? I plan to tow a boat
(approx 2,500 lbs) occasionally.

Also, I test drove a '97 Sport + and a '97 SLT + , both had 3.55 but the
SLT seemed alot faster. Any idea why???

Any input is greatly appreciated!!!
