A friend of mine came across a brand new, in the box, Borgeson Model #800120 quick ratio steering box. Is it worth getting without the steering column or pump to go with it? Will it work with stock steering column and pump?

Has anybody figured out why track bar failure occurs? This will be the 4th or 5th one that I have had to replace in 170k.... The end that attaches to the cross member is quite loose... If I recall correctly, the last one I replaced was in 2016 at about 160k . It is a Quick Steer brand made of "Forged Steel" according to the manf. Thanks and if You Guys have a recommended unit to buy this time, I am ready to try a different brand. Ed PS: I am a much more mellow driver in my advanced age (53) than I used to be!!

So I was wanting to get new leather seats for my truck. The katzkin leather I heard is popular, it's a kit that just pulls over the seat i believe, a dealer would install it for 1600 buck, that's material cost and labor . Anybody done this to there truck before? Does it seem to good to be true, maybe cheap product or something else? Also leatherseats.com has some nice looking seats you can make for 1300bucks, not including install.

Okay..... I know I'll probably regret it but, a guy can spend over 5-600 bucks just for stock sport headlights and I'm used to my first gen at 24 bucks ea. and its all glass. So wondering if anyone dealt with the issues on the ebay version? I plan on using LEXEL (it fuses to plastic) to seal around the lenses and then get stainless fine thread screws that I can change out for the adjustment screws. BTW, the Lexel sealant you can use to build up weak places in plastic since Michael Nelson was talking about some portion snapping off or something, basically warning me not to get them. lol.

Has anyone here ever put a rhino lining type product on their truck? I’m considering selling my rig and it’s got a lot of rock chips in the lower portion of the doors that I’d like to cover up without painting the truck. Iv seen a few pics of guys that have done it. I would line up to the first crease in the body just below the trim piece. Here’s a few brands Iv heard of. Rhino Line, Line X, Herculiner, Duraliner, Gardit, Reflex, Etc.

Morning Gents, As you guys might or might not know, I use my truck to tow my enclosed trailer out to the desert to ride in our dune buggy. I just bought a new buggy that consumes QUITE a bit more fuel than the last one did. I was getting away with 20 gallons/weekend, but this is not getting it any longer. so......... what Im looking for are options to take gas out with us. In a perfect world, it would be ~30 Gallons. fit across the front of the bed under the rear window. be removable, so I dont lose more space in an already too short bed when we are not out in the desert. have a pump & hose so I could fill up t…

Does anyone have these that confirm they fit 2nd gens? http://www.weathertech.com/dodge/2002/ram-truck-1500/floorliner-digitalfit/bodystyle/quad-cab/drive/4-wheel-drive/transmission/automatic/ I've been waiting forever for weathertech to come out with the fitted mats, but they only list them as fitting the 2002 1500's. What's weird is if you change the year to 2001 1500, they're no longer as option so I'm wondering if they think a 2002 is actually a 3rd gen?
