Nice an deep like

Greg A doesn't like play!

[@danboothe7807]

I'm about to buy my first cummins 2003 2500 2wd. 275k miles. No excessive blowby, rebuilt trans. Love your videos.

[@jman71890]

This was extremely helpful. The fan clutch on my 16' is doing the same thing and im tackling the job this weekend. Gave me an idea of whats involved. Thanks

[@caseyn720]

The thermostat should stay closed until the engine is warm. Even if the fan is always going.

[@YouFoundDeez]

Dodge Offroad got it right when building their steering brace. Had mine for a year now, and am more than happy. $50 more than others, but the quality is on point, and the frame rail mounting was genius.

[@Lee01Mr]

Hope you had a great weekend Greg!

[@triplepedal_03]

Been waiting on the continuation 🥳

[@andrewwadel92]

Very helpful video. I gotta do something with my 3rd gen this summer and didn't want to just go with the same stock 3rd gen pump , just wasn't sure exactly where to go for upgrades.

[@dainbramage2896]

a little silicone gasket maker in the gap of those flare nuts will keep them from rusting again making life easier if you ever need too remove them again

[@brotherhoodofram8967]

Awesome video as always Greg and I bought a long sleeve Wrench workz shirt and decal from your site

[@randygates7438]

Love watching your channel because of the great content. You actually do your work. Not just talk about it then go have it done somewhere

[@paidinfull5950]

My 08 is cooling coming to a stop and idling, great video thanks

[@barneyross4393]

Really appreciate the content. So often people muddy truck/automotive videos with garbage. You keep it clean, and interesting. And actually, makes me motivated to go wrench on my own truck! Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@skipman8yard]

Nice bit of info keep it coming greg 👍😎👌

[@conradwhite7755]

You always have to support the box!!

[@shearerperformance4016]

Greg A you the man

[@dandorris8531]

I have that same box on my 08. It was a warranty replacement from the factory. I went in complaint about a box leak. They warranty the box. It took 9 months to get the box don’t know why. It was definitely worth the wait. Just FYI though the dealer told me that they were lucky not having to change out all my steering components because the later 08 truck already came with the heavier duty change over components. This is just to let everyone know not to just go out and buy this box and thinking it will just fit your truck do your homework first. This is what the mechanic who worked on my truck explained to me. My A/C pump took a shit 6 months ago. When I bought the new compressor there was a warning slip inside that required changing of the fan clutch. In speaking to another shop that works on dodges regularly, I was informed that the fan clutch get lazy and don’t come on soon enough and causing high head pressure and blowing the relief valve on the compressor. I know this is the opposite of your problem but just thought people should know what else is happening with that clutch. The new clutch I noticed comes on as soon as you turn the AC on and pulls air like a MOFO to keep head pressure Down. Just my 2cent worth.

[@MrFinkFixes]

Great Vid Greg.

[@jeepslivin]

RedHead reman boxes! USA company. No over center steering movement, light feel. i did not big shaft upgrade due to brace and pitman arm already installed. very impressed!...one note...any box with very little or no overcenter you will feel more road input, tire imperfections issues. like you said. you have to "drive" it more.

[@homeguy4]

I did a sector shaft brace on my JKU and it was a day and night difference.

[@jballou0831]

Mechanical fan clutch is the answer to make it reliable. Uses a Ford V10 part, and a Cummins OEM hub adapter. Then bolt up your plastic fan blades. Done.

[@hunterprowsemrereviews9141]

Awesome awesome video Greg A, some nice parts for the 08, so nice that I might need to get that stuff for my 04.5 if it’ll all fit mine lol. I do need a steering box lol mines wore out like yours was lol.

[@zachariahjrhaza8508]

What bumper do you have on it?

[@brentmcmahon8188]

The Canada company that makes ball joints threw a couple of those bushings in for free so cool that’s Canada!

[@thorkmoore]

I’m surprised you didn’t also upgrade the steering pump and reservoir to the 4th gen one while you were in there! You might need it now with that new steering box! Something to look into !👍

[@joshua6200]

Youre a God my friend...nice work

[@blueboy611]

Good job Greg

[@woolmanworkx1144]

Glad you “actually” got your parts from dodge off road, by far worst customer service and have had nothing but problems with there steering setup on my 3rd gen. Have two family members that have the same issues I’ve had with the steering and customer service. Glad your happy with them but that guy is a thief

[@_greg_a]

Good to know, I had no idea! Looks like I may be looking at other options! Thanks!

[@buildalifeworthliving4551]

They scammed me too. Dodge off road sucks. Go with thuren or carli

[@ironbrothersgym213]

Same here. Problems with the steering system. Bad service.

[@chevyon37s]

Gates’ fleet runner belts are the green ones. Awesome and very squeak free. I get mine at rock auto.

[@roderickwhitehead]

I only use Gates belts. Everything else is absolute garbage.

[@DynamicDiesel]

I love startups to begin the videos🤤

[@raychilcote5558]

Check out the intermediate shaft bushing. Put your head on the brake pedal and look up. There's an intermediate shaft coupler that has rubber in the middle and 2 pins. The rubber can get soft over time. Geno's sells some small aluminum bushings that can be hammered in around the pins to prevent any slop created by the rubber. Bigger meats (tires) amplifies play here. I'm certain guys chase loose steering and this one, though it doesn't create 2" of play, can correct that last 1/2" of play. (btw, I'd say if you are constantly correcting and the truck annoyingly over corrects... this is the issue. That rubber causes a "delay" as you add more and more tension. When it finally has enough twisting pressure, your tires turn and this continues to "give a little more" twist, thereby over correcting).

[@davidb1089]

I got my 2006 2500 4x4 crew cab I did a air box restrictor delete and for else the truck is stock it's one hell of a race truck also rolling on 33 inch tires

[@UpperEndLandscape]

Just got done today converting my electronic fan clutch to a 95 ford 7.3 mechanical clutch, no more wire! best move i done yet, that wire got ripped off twice and ruined a fan 1 radiator and my shroud.

[@Nicksterzone]

Great steering brace

[@rambo2213]

Not sure if your headlamp is one but you could get one that is a rechargeable headlamp from Wal-Mart or maybe other stores like that that may have things like that

[@76WINTER]

Check out Chris Fix he’s got great videos on that

[@seancedio6815]

Hey Greg, was your steering wheel off center when you were finished with the installation, or was it off center before you replaced the steering gear and brace? Mine was center before but off center after.

[@jdkirane7990]

Might want to do a thermostat in the 08 if it hasn't been changed recently

The 06 I went through the suspension and upgraded to a Carli suspension and new steering box. Next step will be fuel system, turbo and cooling system.

I don't know on rams/dodge on your gear box but on my 06 f250 Harley Davidson 4x4 I put a redhead gear box on and new lines it made a huge difference it's super tight now but I'm asking would a redhead gear box be better on rams/dodge just asking not being a internet mechanic

[@mikestrucks]

Cool 😎 danny at Dor is doing badass parts 💪

[@christiansharp4851]

Where did you get your intake at for the 2nd gen swap

[@oldowl4290]

Have you ever replaced the rubber bushing in the steering column though? It's a huge factor in steering wheel play and should be done before or at the same time if going through with the efforts of replacing the steering box. This is always something that fully needs to be worked from the top down, not bottom up.

[@fc3sboy1]

The p0128 is for the thermostat.

[@johnwhitty9069]

[@varmint223]

What gauges do you have up on the pillar on this truck I’m looking for a fuel psi gauge that bolts on like that setup

[@Hiperf]

I'm sure the stock 3rd box wasn't built to the max but after 175k miles I followed directions and just tightened mine up a little bit without removing it. Right or wrong it made a hell of a difference. I only went about 1/4 turn at a time and drove it. Night and day difference. Its been 20k miles later and it still feels new.

[@vsixxshooter]

What exhaust system do you have in that truck? If you mind me asking. Thanks in advance 👍🏽
