Yeah, I really gotta get rid of the stock lsd. Just so much money for not much of a gain for what I do.

I also have a 2004 3500, but it has a 6" lift kit on it and I think the tie rod assemblies may be changed out. This was done by the previous owner about 7 years ago. I might have the dealer check anyway.

Some do, some don't. I know on my Rancho kit, it replaces the stock tie rod ends with larger ones WITH ZIRCs but I've worked on trucks with Fabtech and Superlift that get by with the stockers.

Good idear to have them checked just to be sure...

I will, but I see no urgency in doing so as this truck has in the past had front tire balance problems where the whole front end would violently shake at 50 MPH, If the tie rod ends were faulty they would have broken during these shakes.

Also why doesn't my signature info show up in my post?

That's bad reasoning, dodge death wobbles are a combinations of manny factors, drag links, tie rods go on these trucks as often as you put butter on toast.

On the right hub were the drink link is connected, has this been greasesd?
GREASE Keeps this compression fitting from falling off, thiers no lock nut.

Well Dodge called this AM and the parts haven't showed up yet. So they had to re-schedule. I will let you all know once it happens.

Wish this nightmare would be over.....

What nightmare are you referring to? You had 2 posts on this thread, and none of them seem nightmarish to me!!
