so not sure where this would belong however I am looking to upgrade steering on my 00 4x4 1500 with the 5.2 (wanting to upgrade to the 5.9 as well) I am told that a 2500 box will be more useful and productive and stronger than the 1500 and mounts the exact same... any info would be appreciated and wondering about the 3500.. if the 3/4 ton is good would the 1ton be better? also the pump... mine is dying ( hits and misses when idling, whining although full of fluid and cant seem to get any air bubbles out...) any upgrades for that? what about the lines will the lines from a 1/2 fit the 3/4 box etc? I am running an "over-sized tire" ( currently a 285/75/16 and hopefully to go a little bigger in the future) thanks RF

Wish I could help ya man, I don't know if the 2500 or 3500 series rams have a beefier steering box/pump.

the boxes are supposed to have a different ratio for turning larger tires under heavier loads... but i dunno about the rest
