Difference from 03-05

[robert]

What are the changes on the SRT10 from 2003-2005?

[SylvanSRT]

'03 only year with grey/silver brake calipers

'05(possibly '04) engine has a knock sensor

that about covers it, otherwise all the same

[Racer Robbie]

My 2003 also has half shafts with universal joints instead of the CV joints found in later models. It is also stiffer sprung. Also when Yelloh, Rick, had his 2005 Viper in my shop this past Tuesday we noticed that his seats are more form fitting than mine.

I thought all Gen III had CV joints. Not sure on the springs either. Are you sure they changed part number?

[Racer Robbie]

Mine does not have them. Mine for some reason has UV joints

[robert]

Thanks.
So I guess year wouldn't be a deciding factor since there aren't too many differences.

Mine has U-Joints as well ('04)

[Racer Robbie]

Zorro, I thought 2004 had U joints but I was not sure. 2005 and up has CV joints.

Thanks for the info

Lets see a picture.

My Half shafts have CV joints and U-joints on the drive line.

I have yet to see a Gen-3 with U-Joints in the "half shafts", all are CV's.

I was surprissed that my car came with UV joints. I bought it brand new and it has never been in any shop except for my own. It has 6 miles on it when I bought it from Pappas Dodge in CT.
