A500

they built the 42rh (a500) from 89 through 95. 94 and 95 was reported to be the best. most are behind v6 dakotas. not sure on full size rams. i know they made a v8 version of the 42, but every v8 dakota iv'e found down here has the 46rh ( 727 size). i'm gonna use the v6 version in mine, but the way i drive, it should hold up ok. dave.
