please do tell... I was just going to order replacement parts off rock auto. still on stock 16" alloys, 265/75r16. I have no suspension mods plans this year, maybe if money is good by winter some AR rims larger tire and 2" level...

 

I posted a thread on it a while back.

https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...y-truck-2.html

there is like a 1500+ posts thread on cumminsforum about it as well.

so long as your truck is a 2000 or later 4x4 Ram, it should bolt on as a decent upgrade. but you would need to grind the tie rod end studs down to clear stock wheels since 4th gens come with 17" or larger wheels...
I have 16" wheels but they are aftermarket and backspaced so clearance isn't a problem for me.

basically you buy from one of the online mopar factory parts sites and get the steering as a complete assembly, and then either adapt or change out the stabilizer to a 4th gen stabilizer.

 

interesting, ill look into it. Thanks

 

Just ordered some rotors and ceramic pads for the front from rock auto. 115 shipped. Shipping is a beatch. Lol still half as expensive as going to oreillys

 

Drove it into town today. Had some motorcycle guy pissing with me in the right lane so I floored it and went past him spinning my tires LOL. That look on his face was priceless! Left him behind with some tire smoke to consider haha.

 

Took the 98 farm truck for it's 4/5 week fill up and after replacing the idle control valve it's getting 11.6 MPG local, (best it's done in a year). K.

 

Going in tomorrow to get 3 ball joints, axle u-joint, axle seal e-brake replaced. Don't have the tools to do the job or the time to get a hold of them so unfortunately have to get them done at the shop. Dont need to destroy the new tires I got a little bit ago

 

Replace the 4th ball joint as well. Otherwise, you will get to pay to have it done again in a couple months.

 

Is there anyway to get rid of the balljoints and go to say kingpins? Cuz I have them balljoints. I've got at least two bad balljoints, if I turn to tight while moving it makes an unearthly sound.

 

What axles ya got under that? I know the D60 had a kingpin version, but, don't know if they ever cam in dodge trucks. (drivers side pumpkin.)
