@@TheMoparGarage Hey, it is going well, except the steering shaft is really tight against the steering box, and the 3 bolts that hold the steering box are so tight they won't budge! I've got the hydraulic lines off and the pitman arm came off with no complications.
@@TheMoparGarage Got 'em! The lowest one gave a good fight all the way off with that debris. The steering shaft connection gave way once I got the flat screwdriver blade in there. Thanks again for the well-done video!
Nice video man. I had flashbacks of my 94 and the steering (or lack thereof) It's always been flat out scary to drive. I personally like these second gen videos. In fact, you've inspired me to do a video on mine.
Heck yeah I’d love a video on the 94! The Redhead steering boxes help these things out a lot. The stock boxes wear out so quickly and it gets that 2nd Gen wander 😂…this truck with it’s oversized tires and lift never sees much Highway time anyway, it’s most just back roads. So I cheaped out and went with the OEM style one.
your 2nd gen vids are all I watch. I have a '96 that I have always taken to a mechanic. I picked up 2 '95's that were destined for the junk pile. the both have the transmission solenoid issues and 1 has HORRIBLY loose steering. I don't know the first thing about mechanics but I'm gonna dive in and figure it out I guess....wish me luck!
I don’t, I have a few videos on a 2500 diesel that I used to have, but never had to work on the vacuum pump. I’m sure there are videos out there about it though!
Can a bad steering box cause a shake in the steering wheel but only at ceartian speeds? Or do you have any recommendations on what else could cause that? I only get a shake between 55-70mph
@TheMoparGarage it's had two different sets of tires and rims on it with the same issue both of which were confirmed balanced that's where I'm getting confused
This particular truck is 4x4. It’s a pretty similar process on a 2x4 though. Pittman arm and steering setup will look different on your truck but overall this video should still be able to get you through it.
3 of the 4 threaded mounts for the sway bar broke off inside the frame when I went to change bushings. I still have the front one if I ever wanted to tap the frame itself or weld it back on. But I never really noticed it missing driving so I never bothered, probably because those rough country shocks are so stiff 😂
I know most of you guys are subscribed for Shelby Daytona content, more of it is coming very soon!
Nice clean straightforward video. I'm doing mine tomorrow.
Thanks for watching! Should make it track a heck of a lot better

@ those can be tough because they catch so much salt and debris off the tire. As you saw in the video, I had to break one

Appreciate you taking the time to record and share this repair
Appreciate you watching!

@@peterventura5416 thanks for watching man! Never too late to learn how to wrench!
You got some pretty sweet videos!
Thanks brother!
Do you have video for vacuum pump liquid ram 2 generation 3500
I don’t, I have a few videos on a 2500 diesel that I used to have, but never had to work on the vacuum pump. I’m sure there are videos out there about it though!
@@TheMoparGarage appreciate good video

It shouldn’t…A shake between 55-70 sounds like a tire balance issue to me.

@@dylan0265 that’s odd. Steering parts like tie rod ends and ball joints are all tight?
Where did you buy your power steering hoses at ?
Rock auto, I get probably 90% of my parts from there.
I just adjusted my box on my 85 d150 few tries not it doesn't wonder lol.
SALUDOS DESDE LOS MOCHIS SINALOA OIGA SOY FAN DE TU CANAL Y DE LAS RAM 1994 2001 SALUDOS
¡Gracias por ver! Siempre han sido mi modelo favorito también.
Is that a 2wd or 4wd? I have a 2wd and I’m planning on changing out my steering box

@@TheMoparGarage Thank you 👍🏾
@@elundrusmagee7915 any time! Let me know if you have any questions - Thanks for watching.
Why did you remove the sway bars?
3 of the 4 threaded mounts for the sway bar broke off inside the frame when I went to change bushings. I still have the front one if I ever wanted to tap the frame itself or weld it back on. But I never really noticed it missing driving so I never bothered, probably because those rough country shocks are so stiff 😂
Nice!!
Glad to see you didn't puss out a wear latex gloves.
Shalom
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Dodge would be followed more if it were a Cummins ..
I have some Cummins content as well!
Could have done a better paint job for cheaper with an actual sprayer. It would ha e saved your fingers from the spray can nozzle.
I thought about going that direction, intense blue paint was really expensive though. It’s not perfect but I am happy with the way it came out!
