Default Ram Generation 2.1

Hey, My name is Ronnie Lee, I'm U.S. Army military Police stationed at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. I have the pleasure of owning a 98 Ram, 5.9, 4 door, 4x4...Red with black accents. I bought the truck in 2000, for $16000. It was a steal and I'm still glad I bought her...even if she decided to take a dump on me last year, on Christmas Eve. I was rough on her though and next week I am going to begin the process of tearing down the transmission and rebuilding it myself. I know that seems like a really huge project for a novice like me BUT...I have good friends who are willing to help me out.
I call my baby Faye...it's just a name between me and the truck...and the colors seem to fit the description. I'll post some pictures up...and keep a log of the Tranny rebuild so that I can help out others with similar problems in the future.
I call it Ram 2.0...because although mine is a second gen Ram....it's not the originial 2nd generation, 97 brought some minot cosmetic changes, and 99 brought more minor cosmetic changes so I like to think of mine as Ram 2.1.
Glad to find a forum like this for the Dodge people....
Take it easy

Ronnie Lee

Welcome to DF!! I had the pleasure (sorta) of staying in the barracks out in Ft. Eustis, VA while I was on active duty in the Navy. That base was actually really clean I thought. But why in the world do you guys insist on getting up at 4am and doing a workout on the grinder! Jeeze, let us sailors sleep!!!

I used to be stationed at FT Myer in the 90's. I spent a lot of time at Belvoir while I was there. As a matter of fact I went to Air Assault School there in 92. I loved that area. Welcome to DF.

Welcome to DF. This is the place to come for getting ideas, checking out other peoples rides, asking questions and sharing knowledge. Lots of good people here. Glad to have you aboard.

That is going to be quite a project. We look forward to hearing how it progresses.
