Flywheel questions...
Good find, certainly doesn't appear to be a dual mass design. I tried counting some teeth from the images but it doesn't really seem to come out right to me, you can't see all of them anyhow in either photo. Unfortunately it doesn't list a part number either so it's really tough to search for it but that's a definite start. I appreciate the help!
Update:
Boy do I feel dumb, the part number is right there on the flywheel in the picture. Counting one of the sections between the pressure plate mounting holes seems to come out to around 143 teeth so that makes sense based on what my searches show below.
Dakota/Ram 4.7L flywheel part number: 53020688AB
Well, that's REAL Hot Roddin'!

Yeah, it feels like we're gettin' somewhere. Riding 72BBSwinger's Ebay wave I seem to have figured out that the
jeep version of the 3.7L/4.7L are advertised as 131* (error?) tooth flywheel's and they both have the 8-bolt crank pattern.
Dakota 3.7L/4.7L flywheel's are advertised as 143 tooth and have the 8-bolt crank pattern as well. So I guess it is safe to assume that while both engines were used in both, the Dakota's got the bigger flywheel and clutch for "HD" use.
