Has to be from a 99 v8 from what I've read.
Shaft bolts up and the box bolts right up to the frame. Not sure on the fittings.

Yes, a 99 V8 Durango.
You do have to space the box out from the rail 1/4" inch because the bore on the Durango box is larger. I used hardened washers along with longer bolts.

there are 2 v8 options. doesnt matter which one? Are there any specific markings to make sure it is in fact the right box? Just want to be 100 percent--- thanks!

In '99 the Snow Plow option was dropped and all of the subsequent boxes (99 & up) are the beefier versions.

i just found one thats only (400 miles away) any way it is out of a 99 with the snow plow option. so this is the one i need? Other than that all 99 and newer will work? Thanks. Oh one more thing....Should I use the pump as well or just keep my stock pump? doesnt seem to be anything wong with mine right now and i cant imagine the durango has the same belt tension adjustment mess the xj has. Thanks for your help
cheers
