Cummins front seal and Harmonic dampener R&R
INTERESTING to say the least. I ordered a new balancer. I did not order the seal kit as of yet because I am not sure which gasket set I will need. Looking forward to the infamous 'Roll Pin' and get that out of the way. I yanked my fuel cut off solenoid after getting tired of chasing the lack of...- Apogee

Cummins front seal and Harmonic dampener R&R
I have noticed that the front seal is slinging a little oil. Upon further inspection the rubber wafer on the face of the harmonic dampener is starting to extrude out of the face of the dampener. I am thinking , replace the seal and the dampener. Has anybody on this forum had the pleasure of...- Apogee

Who's got the most miles on there truck!
Okay, I'll jump in on this one. I have a 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4. It has 285000miles and I have always felt that the engine was about 1/2 done...maybe. Maybe only 33%. Anyway, as things wear out or stop working I replace them if it is a down gripe. If I can get around to it , like my cracked...- Apogee

Hammer Head Front Bumper
I agree, very pricey. The lighting is poor on this truck, so I will like the extra lighting. I think the bumper will be formidable. Still pricey for a friggen bumper. I have no idea why these cost so much. I already paid for it and have a reasonable amount of remorse. I hope it goes away, I just... -
Hammer Head Front Bumper
I currently have a aftermarket OEM style front bumper on my 1996 Dodge RAM 2500 4x4, 12valve. The plastic cover never fit all that well and a bunch of other excuses. The other day I lost my mind and ordered a Hammer Head Low Profile Front Bumper. I did not get the one with the winch mount... -
Ball Joint Replacement Dana 60 4X4
I replaced everything in my front end except the ball joints. I noticed that there are many manufactures that have ball joints for my 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 Dana 6o axle, 8800GVW. Some were inexpensive and some up to $800 a set. Some knurled, some smooth, some offset, some adjustable with many... -

I have gone out of my way on many occasions to allow working guys to do something for me that I could do myself, with my only motivation was to supply them with some business. Knowing how to do...- Apogee

1996 Dodge RAM 2500 4X4 Diesel Front Chassis Rebuild
I do not have the 'Death Wobble' but I can feel some looseness transmitting up my steering column. I avoided looking down there until I heard a clicking noise that was in sync with my front wheel speed, so I looked. I found that the CV joint on the left axle was a goner. I did not want to do the...- Apogee
