What is the years for the durango upgrade? Is it just the 99 with the 4x4 snow plow package? Or would any durango box 4x4 work? My box is loosy goosie, and it started leaking copious amounts of fluid from the hard line input on top. 256000 miles is abut time to upgrade, it's an '88 Laredo, 4x4, was an automatic, need to get it done this weekend.
