Thought about taking a look at a 2000 ram 2500 for sale on CL
Says there is a loose bolt on flywheel and makes a noise when idoling. Has 112k on it
For sale for 1500$. What do you guys think about that and options that could be wrong with it?

I've had a couple general motors vehicles that made a rattling or clicking sound from under the trans when idling. Both times it was because of a cracked flywheel. The upside though is that a new flywheel is only around a hundred bucks. You have to remove the transmission mounting bolts and slide the transmission back to unbolt the flywheel and install a new one. It's not too bad of a job, but you'll need to place a jack under the transmission to be able to move it without removing it entirely.
