I spoke with my dealer this morning and they have confirmed what I said previously is correct. My 2012 Ram 3500HD does have the 3.73 rear end AND has the max tow package verified through Ram by my trucks VIN. Max towing capacity of my truck as it sits on the ground is 18,200 lbs per the dealers link verified through Ram.
Wow, that's weird. Do you have the finned rear diff cover? That cover came with the max tow.
Yes, it has the finned rear diff cover, the additional coolers, and something else that I forget off the top of my head. When I was buying this truck, we ended up dealer trading over 2,000 miles as I was insistent on the 3.73 rear end with the max tow package. That combo was one that a dealer had to order specifically as the standard package was either the 3.73 or the 4.10 with max tow package. Finding a 3.73 with Max Tow Package in the Longhorn edition was tough to say the least. It was worth the hassle as I love being able to set the cruise at 80MPH and turn 1,900RPM's.
