    Steering wheel suddenly off center to right

    Fixed the ujoint and checked the rest out. One ball joint is a little loose. Tie Rod a little loose at pitman arm and boot on center tie rod is torn. I guess I’m just going to bite the bullet and rebuild the whole thing. I still don’t see how that caused my steering wheel to suddenly be so...

    Steering wheel suddenly off center to right

    He said he hit a pothole, so it’s possible. You would think that would t do as much as some of the off-roading we do. When he gets home, I’ll have him turn the steering while I look at the linkage.

    Steering wheel suddenly off center to right

    So the only thing I see wrong is the driver side u joint is broken. I don’t see how that would cause the steering wheel to go off center though. Having a heck of a time getting the hub off so it’s going to soak in some PB blaster.

    Steering wheel suddenly off center to right

    My son has been driving my '96 1500 4WD for the past week. Went to drive it today and the steering wheel is off to the right, about 2 o'clock when driving straight ahead. It was perfectly straight before. What should I check? FWIW, it already has a borgeson steering shaft and a heavy moog...

    1996 4wd ABS and brake warning lights on

    20 and 14’were good and I replaced them for good measure. Is there a way to check the fluid level sensor to see if it is good?

    1996 4wd ABS and brake warning lights on

    My ‘96 has the brake and ABS warning light on. I ran codes and nothing comes up on the scanner. Fuses are all good. What do I check next?

    Transmission cooler hose part number needed

    The transmission cooler line has started leaving on my 1996 Ram 5.9 Auto. It’s the line that connects at the bottom of the radiator with a push on fitting and at the other end with a threaded fitting to the metal line. When I did a Mopar parts search it is listed as a discontinued product...

    Cruise control on switch

    It’s just momentary. There’s a tiny light next to the button that you can see at night when it’s on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Spark plug/heat shield removal?

    I pulled mine with vice grips too. The bad news is that I had two plugs so rusted in that they broke off and I had a terrible time getting them out. Hope yours aren’t. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I don’t recall. It’s been a few years, but I think so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Today's progress on the Bundy truck, need help.

    Went through that nightmare when I got mine. One snapped and didn’t think I would ever get it out. Just kept soaking with penetrating oil. Removed the heat shields and don’t miss them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cruise Control

    This. My line was really brittle and cracked. Replaced and cruise control works fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    4x4 Actuator Problem

    Don’t know, but should be pretty easy to check. There’s an access plate on the back side of the axle where you can see if it is engaged. At least it is that way on my 1500. I took the cover off when I replaced the axle seal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    98 and up mirrors on a 96?

    My passenger mirror is broken. It's one of the chrome power mirrors. I was wondering if it would be easy to upgrade my mirrors to the ones on the 98 and up trucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Exhaust question. Probably stupid.

    Thrush that supposedly fits wasn't even close. Ended up exchanging it for a walker muffler that looks and sounds like OE. All in all a pretty easy morning's work.

    Exhaust question. Probably stupid.

    I went the cheap route. Walker exact fit tail pipe and intermediate pipe plus Thrush Turbo muffler ran me $100 on sale. Hope to install this weekend.

    Hmmm.....think it's time for an alignment?

    After installing the borgeson shaft my wheel is skewed to the left a bit. Drives me nuts.

    I see. Planning to install myself. Any opinion about walker sound fx versus Thrush turbo mufflers. Both should be direct fits.

    Exhaust question. Probably stupid.

    Autozone is running a 15% off sale today, so I thought I might replace my crusty exhaust. The stock muffler inlet and outlet are offset. So, if you install a bullet or glass pack, how do you like the muffler up with the stock intermediate and tail pipes?

    Gas mileage question.

    Got my rockers done

    If my truck wasn't two-tone, I would definitely do this. Looks great.

    What do you about this exhaust system ?

    I looked online and it appears I can buy the muffler and pipe to fit for well under the price of one of the kits. Might even put a glass pack on. How can I tell it the cat needs replacement? I banged on it and it doesn't rattle.

    What do you about this exhaust system ?

    Thanks for the advice. I was concerned about it being difficult to hang that dual pipe with the gas tank and spare tire location. I usually do all my mechanical stuff myself but haven't tackled exhaust before. Can anyone recommended a fair priced single out system? There's no emission...

    What do you about this exhaust system ?

    I'm still on the original exhaust. It's pretty rusty. I don't want to pay an arm and a leg but would like a bit more growl. This looks like a pretty good deal. How would this compare in price with going to a muffler shop? How hard would it be to replace myself, particularly since it would be...
