I got a 1997 Ram early last year. Since then, I've driven just over 2000 miles and have had 4 power steering pumps die. Pump 1 - Original (probably). Died before doing anything to power steering Pump 2 - Autozone remanufactured. Died after about a month while on a trip. Sounded terrible from...

CLUNK/POP IN FRONT END - FIXED (update) I wanted to post a FIXED update to the recent "clunk" and "pop" in my front end that I have been experiencing. This all started after installing bigger tires and Bilstein 2.1" lift. Basically right after I installed the Bilstein lift I started to notice...

Sooo...I replaced the wheel hubs in my 2010 1500 4x4 4.7 a few weeks ago. I had a very hard time removing the old hub from spindle. I looked at youtube. One of my attempts to free included using a pry par lodged against the lower arm and wheel hub, Hoping to use pressure steering to try to force...

Drove my truck last night it was fine. Drove it today, as I left the house I noticed that the steering wheel is sitting 180 (just about) degrees out. So when I am driving straight the top of the wheel in towards my lap and the bottom is not on top. Right controls are upside down and on the left...

So the power steering went out on my truck yesterday, signed up so I could ask this question. When I bought the truck seven months ago, I took it to get inspected, the steering was a little noisy so I wanted the power steering checked out specifically. The mechanic said that the rack and pinion...

I brought my Ram to the dealer this week for a state inspection and it was flagged for a very slight leak from the steering rack and pinion. It is leaking out of the big plug under what I assume is the pinion. It is the lowest bolt under the rack and pinion unit. My fluid level is fine and I...

Need some help with a power steering issue 93 w350 5.9 turbo, the power steering pump started throwing the fluid out the cap every time I turned the truck off. It seemed to work fine when it was running (easy to turn), but as soon as the I turn the truck off it would throw the fluid out the top...

Okay so I lifted my truck with the Skyjacker 5" and they sent me a pitman arm but it is the same drop as the factory one. My steering is severely off. I got the tires aligned but to go straight it looks like I'm making a mild left turn. Any ideas? I've heard of people going out and buying...

Hey guys, I have an issue with my 02 durango sport 2wd 4.7...I recently replaced the upper and lower ball joints, sway bar links and tie rod ends along with the shocks. I then took it to sears to get an alignment and ever since then something has been popping when I turn at slow speeds...

My ram 1500 quad cab 5.9l just decided to start leaking power steering fluid, and after getting under and getting some pictures, it seems to be that the bottom of the linkage between the steering, and this box (pictured below) is where the leak is. I read somewhere that maybe its a hose, but I'm...

Okay so recently I was going through the woods (mud, water, ruts, etc.) I had to go pull my buddy out. I had my truck in 4wd to pull my buddy out and got him out no problem. Ever since then though its been hard to turn my truck. It started out as kind of stiff when turning and now its gotten to...

When I pulled into my parking lot yesterday and it felt like the truck kind of slid when I turned. I didn't think much of it. I thought I just hit some oil or something. When I went to leave this morning I noticed that I have no steering at all. The steering wheel just spins all the way around...

Just curious if anyone knows of anywhere that sells front end bush kits for the second gen? By kits I mean...back in the UK for my cars I could often buy complete front end bushing ( Anti-roll bars, Swing arms, Ball joints etc) kits in one lump rather than buying each part in turn. It worked out...
