    Water pump install

    Installing a new water pump and not at my house the copy of the service manual. Does the pump gasket get sealant when installing? I personally don't like RTV, but wanted to know what the service manual says. Anything else I should know when going back together? Thanks!

    Rust Buckets

    Thanks for all the input regarding the potential for rust problems. I need a new(er) truck and I'm considering a Ford or Ram 3/4 ton. Neither of are slam dunks. I will probably run it til falls apart or completely dies. I just want the longest laster with the least amount of problems. Sent...

    Rust Buckets

    Not trying to troll. I'm being serious. In need of a newer truck. I like Rams but don't want something that will start rusting out prematurely. As for an aluminum bed, would want one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mild gas leak

    Good thing Dodge put it where it's at! Did you observe it when there pressure on the system to definitively identify the leak. Could be the fitting itself and not the hose. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Brake Lines

    Transmission mating surface damage, help

    I would say if you want to use sealant, use a gasket and a non-hardening sealant such as Yamabond-4 or Hylomar. I don't think RTV or similar silicone sealants are a good option unless it is speced by the manufacture. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    5.9 into a 5.2

    What size tires are on your truck? When I bought my truck, it had the same 20 inch wheels as yours. I don't particularly care for them, but I'm going to have to put new tires on soon. Thinking of selling the wheels and going back to 17s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New 1500 2wd steering box?

    Red Head prices have gone up significantly in the last 6 months. Used to be ~350 +core. Probably better off getting a Borg box. Red Head or Borg, otherwise you'll just continue with junk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vehicle problems Stalling Dying.

    I agree with Joe, you should probably take it to a shop. I can certainly appreciate you trying to learn and take care of this problem, but it sounds like you might be in a bit over your head. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
