    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission 2001 2500 4x4 NAPA lower ball joints

    As have many others, my 2001 4x4 2500 needs new upper and lower ball joints. My local NAPA store says the upper and lower ball joints both have zerk fittings for grease (even says they're both the same part #) On the lower ball joint, the clearance is pretty tight between the ball joint and...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Irritating "clicking" sound near Emergency Brake

    I've had that same sound for about 40,000 miles now. Mine is coming from within the automatic gear shifting mechanism in the steering column. However, you might be describing the creaky A-pillar joint, to which there's a TSB. Either way, I suspect your noise is echoing from another location...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Help!! lower steering column movement

    Patrick, I can reach down while driving and feel the lower column sleeve flex when I hit bumps and such and it creaks. Don't know if this is the direct problem or perhaps indirectly coming from somewhere in the chain. I do know its driven me nuts and I don't see a solution in sight:mad...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Help!! lower steering column movement

    After looking closely at the column, and driving around with my head under the dash :eek: , I don't really think my column is going bad. At least I hope not. There is a mesh type screen around the lower part of the column inside the cab. This "screen" is "pinched" around the base of the column...

    All I saw were steering SHAFTS manufactured by Borgeson. My problem is with the steering column that runs from the steering wheel to the steering shaft. . Am I mistaken?

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Help!! lower steering column movement

    I really need some assistance; can't afford a visit to the stealer!! I have a popping noise coming inside the cab from movement in the lower steering column. I checked, and there is a lot of movement where the column comes through the fire wall to the engine compartment. Does anyone have a...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Steering wheel not right...

    Straight Steering Wheel Mine is the same,has been that way since birth. However, I recently read in the TDR magazine that this was in the design of the truck in order to save your tires with the weight of the engine. Article said to check it by driving down the crown of the road and you only...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Can you hear your clockspring?

    Do any of you guys hear your clockspring unwind when you turn, especially right? I just had mine replaced under warranty and I can hear it when I turn right. Is this characteristic of the truck and normal? Thanks fellas' GA Nightcrawler

    Normal 4x4 shifter?

    Hi guys, got a question for ya. I've got a strange noise in my 2001 4x4 auto. When 4 wheel drive is engaged, there is a small "clunk" or gear clash when the shifter is moved from reverse to park. It seems as though pressure is being released off something due to the torque on the driveline...

    grinding shift in 4-drive with auto trans-

    I've noticed with my 2001 4x4 a slight grinding noise in the auto transmission on occasion when shifting into Park or Reverse while the 4x4 (hi or low) is engaged. The transfer case and 4 wheel drive works great, and with no problems, I was just curious as to what may be causing this grinding...

    driver's side door bottom rubs when body flexes?

    I have a slight problem with my driver's side door. At the bottom edge, closest to the quad door, the door edge rubs against the sill (body) when the body is flexed any at all. It closes fine, and with clearance, but it clearly hangs lower than the passenger side and moves slightly when going...

    New "Glass Free" Mirrors

    Silver Ratler, My 2500 is about a month old. I have the factory tow mirrors as well. After about 2 days of driving, the passenger side mirror did just as yours, fell out, and I had it replaced by the dealer. After about 2000 miles, the DRIVER side mirror did the SAME THING and I just had it...

    Loose Tow Mirror Problem

    Hey guys, how loose are the factory tow mirrors suppose to be? Not the arm, simply the mirror part. On my driver's side, the mirror was really tight and stable when I first got the truck. After driving for about 3 weeks, the mirror itself has become looser (and pivoting seemingly excessively...

    Buying a CB. Suggestions?

    Can't remember the specifics on the Galaxies, but a few wires have to snipped and soldered. Not a tough modification for someone with a little experience.

    Buying a CB. Suggestions?

    Although there is some aftermarket "setup" to be made, the Galaxy radios are the finest radios made, IMHO. They talk very well, have excellent durability, and plenty of room for upgrading if you ever desire. As for an antenna, I have always felt the long steel whips to be the finest. Although...

    seat belt reminder light problem ?

    thanks mick, however, i've heard that the switch in the latch side controls more than the seat belt lamp (air bag deployment, retractor, etc,) Can anyone verify this? Also, I cannot find any archived posts on seat belt lamps with this new board. Thanks-

    seat belt reminder light problem ?

    I have a new (week old) 2001 2500 4x4 and I have what I think is a problem with the seat belt reminder light. Whenever I latch my seat belt, the light goes out fine. However, with any "bump" in the road, or if any pressure is applied to withdraw it, the light comes on and then goes back out...

    Compatibility of Mopar Molded splash guards and westin step bars on front?

    My dealer told me that the mopar molded mud flap/splash guards on the front wheels will not work with "molded steps or side steps". Is this also true for Westin step bars? Has anyone tried this? Will they work together on the front? Thanks for the input P. S. My step bars are the CPS...
