Few Questions for Sport Ram...
1. I found a truck but it got rear issue... He said When you drive it... it drives fine goin straight but when you turn there issometimes aloud "chunk" noise that comes from the rear end and the limited slip seems to stay locked in posi. Has anyone had the same problem or anything and how much would it be fixed for???
2. Can two plug headlights can change into one plug cuz I found an aftermarket headlight that got one plug...
3. Can the front bumper be convert to Regular bumper cuz I'd like to put brush guard on it since they don't have anything for sport model...
Thanks,
Andrew

RE: Few Questions for Sport Ram...
very rough guesses on pricing...
1. worst case - ring, pinon, bearings, lsd, labor at non-dealer shop might run $500-1500. maybe more for premium lsd. junk yard complete rear end swap might be cheaper. 250-500. lsd replacement, maybe 400 for dodge crap/track-loc or 500 for powertrax, or 750-1000 for premium auburn lsd.

2. i don't know, maybe junkyard light harness ??? maybe more trim pieces required ??
3. yes. buy new, ebay, or junk yard.

I'm not exactly sure... I just wondered if any of the ram owners had this problem before so i would know what i need and how much the repair would be... I just want it to be driveable in cheap way cuz I'm only goin to use it to carry 4 wheeler and even pull a trailer and boat and whatever...

Yes the 2 plug headlight can be changed to one. Just leave one unplugged. it wont hurt anything. also, if you take the sport lights off the truck, i would love to have em. Also, welcome to DF

RE: Few Questions for Sport Ram...
Not sure about the clunk, just make sure you know where its at for yourself and not take the word of the guy trying to sale you his truck. Might be a good idea to take it to a mechanic and ask for an estimate...unless you are mechanically inclined enough to do it yourself.
While this will work, the sport headlights have one lamp for low beam and one for high beam. The only time they both work at one time is when you flash your lights by pulling back on the dim switch. In other words, if you only use only the low beam lamp in the new headlights and you switch to your high beams, YOU WON"T HAVE ANY LIGHTS. This can be fixed but you will need to mod it yourself.
