2002-2008 Dodge Ram Accessories & Parts
The third generation of the Dodge Ram 1500 began in 2002 and ended in 2008. The third gen Ram 1500 underwent a major overhaul compared to its predecessor, completely upgrading the frame, suspension, powertrain, interior, and even the sheet metal. Four-wheel drive Ram 1500 of this generation replaced the older solid front axle design with an updated independent front suspension axle (on the 1500 model only), but overall, the general design of the Ram 1500 remained true to the model line and only received small cosmetic updates. The 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500 utilized three different engines including the 3.7L Magnum V6 that made 215 HP and 235 TQ, the 4.7L Magnum V8 that made 235 HP and 295 TQ, and the 5.7L Magnum V8 that made 345 HP and 375 TQ. In 2003, Dodge decided to also upgrade the axles on the Ram 1500, going from AAM axles to Dana Corp axles, a change that was well received amongst enthusiasts. Revamping the performance and underpinnings of the Dodge Ram 1500 helped to ramp up sales with Dodge selling 450,000 Rams during ’02-’03, up 50,000 from the previous year. In addition to the normal Ram 1500, dodge also release the Dodge Ram SRT/10 that was produced from 2004-2006. The SRT/10 Ram borrowed the Dodge Viper’s 8.3L 10-cylinder engine that put down a staggering 510 HP and 535 TQ. More of a hot rod than a pickup truck, the SRT/10 Ram quickly cemented its place in history as being one of the greatest pickup trucks of all time. Through the production of the third generation of the Ram, Dodge continued to upgrade and refine the truck. In 2006, Dodge introduced multi-displacement system Hemi V8 engines across all of their model lines including the Ram 1500. The updated Hemi design packed the same power and performance of the previous design, but it used cylinder deactivation to improve fuel economy. But owning a truck isn’t all about fuel economy; it’s about having a mean and rugged pickup that can support your lifestyle, whether you’re on the clock or not.
