What Did You Do To Your 2ND GEN RAM Today?
that’s what I’ve read about the off road models. So I feel I got it for a pretty good price. Has a jasper reman trans that shifts perfect. Fluid looks pretty new and smells fresh. Diff covers appear to have newer silicone on them front and rear. I plan on looking inside anyways just to verify no one ever swapped the 4.10s out. Hopefully it just had services done and maybe rear lsd rebuilt at one point. I didn’t even know it was a off road edition till I ran the vin number after I bought it. I mainly wanted it to swap my interior for the leather and door panels with the wood trim. So that being said I will have a full charcoal cloth interior in 9/10 condition with power driver. For sale hear soon. Door panels also. And after I swap the axles from underneath that truck. I’ll be getting rid of my old axles. That have aftermarket 4.10 gears in them but the rear end clutch packs are toast. It’s basically a open diff at this point.

If you were closer, I would be interested in that interior, but, shipping from you to me would be outrageous.
it in between the leaks and smoke. Interior is trash other then chairs and headliner. Dash destroyed. Tires are junk. Grill missing. He’s is dented and one of the rear doors is dented. Front bumper is trash. That’s it pretty much a parts truck to me. I’m just going to turn my regular sport model into a Laramie sport using this truck. And sell what’s left over. I should be able to get my money back out of it and make a profit. It’s rust free. So it’s got a good hood. Doors. Bed if you fix the dent. Wheels. Newer transmission. Transfer case. Driveshafts. All that good stuff.
Blend Door USA has come up with a way to replace the broken plastic doors in the Dodge Ram gen heater boxes. We have re-designed the doors out of aluminum. Then we seal them with a polyether based foam that will not break down like the polyester based on the old plastic doors. We have been selling these doors since 2009, and have had ZERO failures. These doors are made to be installed as an OEM fit. www.blendoorusa.com
This is a complete kit to repair your 1994-2002 Ram truck. This kit includes new solid aluminum HVAC doors to replace the Recirculation Door, Panel Door, Defrost/Floor Door and a bracket to repair your original metal Blend Door.

Just finished yet another road trip across the country from Seattle area to Minneapolis area and back. Total miles of 3730 round trip. Truck averaged 15-16 mpg.
The rebuilt track bar and new T steering helped SO MUCH. The pump/gear still whines like air is in there but on the highway at speed it steered nice and easy. The suspension can actually articulate now with the new bar joints and it soaked up the road joints beautifully. I haven't had such an enjoyable trip since it was stock. I'm not fatigued or sore from the drive.
The new Jegs y-pipe helped with power a lot too. I could keep speed up hills and run AC no problems. Big improvement!
Truck turned 277,XXX and ran great. Not one issue or hiccup at all. Ran 87 octane the whole way and never heard ping. I think the truck is just getting broke in! Burned about a quart which is just fine as it always has. The tires are starting to cup on the inside a little. Need to double check the alignment and rotate (it steering dead on though).
I would love to still get a new steering gear as the second Redhead is flexing its output shaft. And I still have to complete the exhaust as I'm just running a glass pack. Plus the paint is shot. But I'm in love all over again. What a truck. She fully redeemed herself after last year's cat fiasco (not the truck's fault but still).
Have a nice day, guys.
