new to the whole forum thing and have some questions about my truck
hey guys i just bought a 97 dodge ram 1500 v8 magnum sport and am having heck of a time trying to find parts for it and trouble shooting some creaks and growns.
my truck is lifted 3 in and is sitting on 33" mud tires but my front axle seal is leacking so i cant put it into 4x4 ive had the seal replaced but it just keeps going out within a couple of days and i cant find a front axle for it. on top of that my oil pressure keeps dropping when i brake and when i start moving it jumps back up i already replaced my sending unit and its made things worse now its burning oil idk if that would be an internal or a seal problem let me know what u think PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and my last thing is when im driving there will be this wierd grinding sound but it mainly does it wen i brake to come to a stop wat causes that?
PLZ i could really use some help on this this is my first truck i only worked and drove manual cars before this so idk anything on what to do or even where to start if u need a pic of it ill be glad to send one!!!
