Where’s your shop located I need a mechanic lol! Seriously

With this removal of the dash. Did you notice if it would be possible to remove the evaporator coil with out removing the steering wheel?

I did the passenger side a month ago (very easy) and completed the driver side yesterday (much more labor intensive). I will say this, it can be done without removing the dipstick, or unbolting the exhaust catch pipes. Make sure the dipstick tube goes on the other side of the ac lines. It just takes some wiggling and good positioning of the dipstick tube. Also make sure to turn the steering wheel in a way so the screw on the steering shaft is straight pointing (not facing to the engine or toward you). It probably only gives you a few extra centimeters or so but it was enough to wiggle the manifold downward between the exhaust catch and the side of the wheel well. Once you have unbolted the manifold raise the manifold left side up while also bringing the right side down and simultaneously maneuvering the dipstick tube (there is enough play to do it). Once you can get the left side high enough and right side down, it should just come right out the bottom by your right foot. When putting the new one back in, I figured you’d need as much room as possible so i slid the gasket in after wiggling the new manifold in. I had difficult getting the new one slid in the same way I got the old one out, so I actually came in through the opposite way (front of truck between ac lines and dipstick connector. Probably ill advised but I was able to do it. Scraped up the ac lines a little but it worked. Sorry if I didn’t use proper terminology for everything but I’m just a KZbin problem solver and hope this helps someone else out. I just wanted to give some positive feedback so this could be attempted without extra steps. Again the game changer for me was positioning the steering wheel in a way so that screw wasn’t catching the dipstick. I couldn’t do it until I rotated the wheel. My truck is a 2017 ram.

What did u use to remove the bolts

Ty for taking the time to show us. Blessings from above

Dude all you had to do was pull the cowl! Its made to come out the top

You have a Venmo?, I got 10$ for you having by far the easiest method in doing this. Can’t thank you enough, every other way is an absolute disaster, why this isn’t the standard method is beyond me

Just completed this job and couldn't get the manifold out! While some videos said to squeeze this out the top somehow, which I was unable to contort this out at all. Your advice to take the catalytic converter Y down and drop the exhaust off the rubber hangers worked like a charm! Thanks for the great advice!

Its you vehicle shifting sensor I think.I had that same problem

Ah 8th grade, good times. We actually did a pretty awesome job on this. I'm impressed. Thanks for puttin' it on T-Rom.
