RJ, I just wanted to let you know this video is still helping people. I am getting ready to replace the pump on my 94 and this helps me prepare and spend less time. I also appreciate that you do your work in the great outdoors like me. 😊

[@RJsGarages]

Hey Rob thanks for watching and we are glad it helped you. Yeah unfortunately not all of us can have big ole fancy shops/pole barns (that is the dream though) So we just have to work with what area we have, which helps others see what issues they might run into when repairing stuf their selves.

Rj, Thanks for the video.Just bought a1996 Ram 1500. Getting ready to change the fuel pump I'll let you know how to went shortly .

[@ECGolusImagery]

Scary. I'm amazed that you didn't poke or stab yourself. Having a similar truck that had muck in the tank from water and modern gas, let me assure you that dropping the tank is far easier and safer. It is advised to have as little gas in the tank.

Hi, my name is John Hall. I've got a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 4 wheel drive. and I wanna. Say, thank you?. For the video, It's been about seven years since I replaced the fuel pump, but I figured it was time to review . How to put in an electric fuel pump in my truck? I'm going down to autozone and pick up my fuel pump for my vehicle today. Thank you. Thank you very much for the information, but I'm gonna do the job. The old-fashioned way drop and roll. Thank you. It was good to go over my steps to working on the truck. Keep making videos. I enjoy the video. Thank you from the great state of South Dakota

I gotta change my fuel pump on my 1500 05. I think dropping the tank is better. U did good. The plugs are always the worst thing. Great video. Thanks for ur input.

[@savage22bolt32]

Are Jay you are one cool dude, love to have you guys for neighbors. It was great to see the family involvement during recording. Glad to see you're working safe with jack stands & blocks. Also, anyone working with gasoline, use the brass or wood. Sparks & gas vapor = a painful death. This is a very comprehensive video. So many other you-tubers don't show the hard parts. Well the hard parts are what us diy'ers really need to see. So thanks a million for not cutting them out. Usually by the time I've figured out the design of the electrical connectors, they are half destroyed! Same goes for all those crazy tubing connections, i.e. fuel, ATF, etc. And yeah for channel lock pliers for snapping them back together! My '02 Ram is a diesel. There's not a nut or bolt on it that isn't rusted into one unit. I'm planning on cutting open the floor of bed. The bedliner will cover the hole. I really hope my pump is in the same place as yours. P.S. I subbed. Looking forward to see what else you've posted.

The clip you depress and pull out, not pull the clip up, thats what broke it. Came right off with my hand with 25 year old oem stuff

Push the red button 😂😊 Same thing happened to me when I first learned about the clip. Also filled up my tank and drove home. Next morning truck won't start. I have a flatbed 1/4 plate so don't wanna cut through it. Not sure if It will come apart the same as this.

Good vid, Jay. Thank you! Nice job. I'm currently haveing a problem with my sending unit but, I'd certainly replace the pump while I'm at it. Wheather you drop the tank or raise the bed... Either method would be a pain in the ass! LOL

Always when you fill the tank. The red tab should have been a give away to unlock. I’m horrible with plastic clips to. Have to study them hard then I break it. The dad noises are real in this video. Good job having your kid help save them over $1,000 later in life. Don’t do this on blacktop. Gas will eat it

2001 Durango just got a new fuel pump still hard start

[@kennethrini2932]

You gave this a great effort and got the job done Do You think undoing all the Bed Bolts on one side and loosening them on the other the bed might have tilted more easily lifting one side up instead of pivoting off the rear bed bolts I am just wondering Our 06 is dead so We are next There was over 200 pounds of just fuel to deal with so lifting the bed sounds like a logical alternative to dropping the tank You got the job done

[@RJsGarages]

Thanks for watching, i tried slightly loosening the one side and it just wasnt giving me enough room to work above the gas tank. This way was actually much easier then it seems. Just jack it up slowly and use boards to place between the frame and the bed and it will work just fine. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe every little bit helps during these times.
