... And I use the term "old" loosely. Last week I acquired a 2005 1500 SLT Quad Cab with 5.7L Hemi. I have been looking for a truck for a while, this one popped up as a killer deal, and so far I'm happy with it. However, it did have the fuel pump die on me Sunday. So now it's getting a new pump and return line. The DAPO zip-tied the return line onto the tank instead of using the compression fittings.
With a hair under 200k miles on the odometer, I have a few items on the repair list over the next few months:
With a hair under 200k miles on the odometer, I have a few items on the repair list over the next few months:
- Replace front & rear wheel bearings, with Abs sensors
- Replace steering rack & tie rod ends (mine leaks)
- Upper and lower control arm ball joints
- New polyurethane bushings all around
- New front grille
- Fix bumps and dings all around, prep for paint and rubberized bed coating.
To the forum, nice find.
