If you're looking to breathe new life into your Dodge, the Zumbrota Drivetrain Axle Assembly is worth a serious look. Trust me, I’ve seen a lot of axles in my time, and these guys really know what they’re doing. Each assembly is rebuilt with a focus on precision and reliability—no cutting corners here. They take the time to inspect every single piece, checking for straightness, cracks, and any surface wear that could throw a wrench in your plans.

What’s great about Zumbrota is their attention to detail. They don't just slap everything together and call it good. Every internal component, from the ring and pinions to the gears and clutches, is thoroughly inspected and tested. Bearings and seals? Those are all replaced, too. It’s like getting a brand-new axle without the brand-new price tag.

And here’s where it gets really interesting: they use a special hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting process on both the inside and outside of the parts. This isn’t just for show; it brings everything back to that OEM finish we all love. Plus, they ensure the gears are set up just right, checking the tooth contact patterns and rolling torque with inch-pound measurements. This means you’ll get a setup that not only lasts but runs quietly—no one wants a howling axle on their ride.

Let’s get into the nitty-gritty. The Zumbrota Axle Assembly is a semi-floating type, and yes, it comes with a cover. Just keep in mind that you’ll need to grab your own fluid. It fits a range of Dodge models, including the D100 Custom from '85 to '86, the D150 Base RWD from '85 to '88, and the Ramcharger models from '85 to '89. So, if you’ve got one of these trucks, you’re in luck.

In short, if you want a reliable axle that’s been rebuilt to last, the Zumbrota Drivetrain Axle Assembly is the way to go. It’s been through the wringer, thoroughly inspected, and rebuilt with care. You’ll get a solid performance boost and peace of mind knowing you’re driving on something that’s been crafted with quality in mind.
