Dodge Combo - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

This has probably been covered but here goes.
I want to buy a 94-98 Ram 2500 Quad Cab Short Box 4x4 with a Cummins. I thought you could get a short box Cummins, but I don't see any for sale. Did they make this combo?

The first year that combo was available was '98. My dad tried to order a '97 with the club cab/shortbed combo and DC denied the order. Even the dealer didn't know it wasn't offered til they got a denial letter from Dodge.

Edit: '98 was also the first year of the Quad Cab. They didn't have the rear doors before that.

Could you get it with just an extended cab?

You could only get the extended cab Cummins in a long bed before 98. I just bought a 2001 QC short bed Cummins last weekend.

I can't wait to tow something with it and see how it does. Should do better than the 2001 QC 1500 w/ a 318 I traded in.

'94 was std cab only
'95-'97 std or club cab
'98 first year for short bed 2500, and first year of quad cab (what I really wanted ('98 quad cab long box 12 valve), but hard to find. 24 Valve started Jan '98. '98 is also when the interior was done; the mirrors changed, and the tailpipe changed.
