As for the steering, I bought a new stearing gear last year, fixed all my problems, but it still doesn't feel anywhere close to a Rack and Pinion setup, I found a company called Unisteer that will make custom Rack and Pinion kits for our Rams for $499.
Okay that is true, back in the day them cup holders were ahead of their time, but today, not so much...haha.

You say $499? Wow, had I know that I prolly would have gotten the Rack and Pinion over the $350 new steering gear box. Damn, where you find this stuff @? Its funny cuz I was telling my buddy two days b4 the gear went in that I wish I could make it rack and pinion. Guess I shoulda consulted DF before purchasing the new gear box...dang

I actually first saw the Unisteer product at a Mustang car show in Orlando, a lot of 65-68 mustangs had them.

Who cares if its street legal...besides it only illegal if you get caught!
I think they would notice that at a road block or just driving by you, so you should be okay? I would check to be certain though, that way you know if you have something to hide on your truck.....

The first cell phone I carried was a Motorola "mobile handheld" like the one you can see in the first Lethal Weapon movie. That little phone in the promotion was a major improvement!

Thats where my love came from. I'm still trying to duplicate the exhaust of the Rams in that movie.
