    bad axle bearing?

    In my 96 ram 2500 4wd I'm getting a vibration that I can feel throughout the truck and in the pedals and steering wheel. It isn't very bad but gets worse when turning right and goes away when turning left. I was thinking driver side front axle bearing gone bad? What else could it be?

    door latch

    Wasn't sure weather to put this in interior or exterior but the driver side door latch is going bad to the point where it doesn't shut very well at all and I don't want to pay 90 bucks for a replacement.

    center consol ripped

    The leather that is on the center consol lid in my truck is ripped on the corners of each side where you'd rest your arm and it looks really ugly. Not too big of a deal, but I'm just wondering what the best way to make it look nice is. Maybe try to rewrap it with some other material? Thanks

    exhaust work

    My 96 ram 2500 with a 12 valve currently has a 7 inch side dump straight pipr exhaust which is a bit too loud for me and any neighbors within a half mile. I want to change it to just a 4 inch straight pipe with maybe a 5 inch tip. Where's the best place to get the material for this and is it...

    As the title states, I've got really sloppy steering in my 96 3/4 ton. The play is for sure in the steering box which was replaced last spring. I have tried doing the adjustment that there is a write up for in the DIY section with no luck. Anything I could stop tighten it up? Thanks.

    5.9 starting

    I have to give my 96 12v a little bit of throttle every time I start it or it will crank for a while before it starts. When it's warm I just have to tap the throttle while I turn the key and it will start and idle fine. If it's cold I have to keep a little bit of throttle for a while or else it...

    fuel leak no start

    Can a fuel leak where the line from the lift pump connects to the top of the fuel filter/ water separator cause the truck to not start? The filter is definitely getting fuel as it is over flowing but I try to bleed the injectors and no fuel. Could air getting onto the system cause this?
