Replacing a Broken Leaf Spring on the Truck! 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 - The Rusty Ram

If you can't get the spring pack off, then you have to do it this way I guess. I've never swapped in a new leaf so enjoy.

First 3 minutes are so relatable. We've all started something, and been like where's that one thing. Spend time looking for it but never find it. Found some cool stuff along the way though. Lol

[@HFG]

Ha! Looking for stuff in my cluttered mess for the first 3 hours of a 1 hour job is the story of my life 😆😆

[@jamesclark1183]

Lol this was awesome!

[@HFG]

Thanks, bud 👊🏼👊🏼 The ole Rusty Ram sure is a majestic beast :) You wouldn't have believed what it was like when I got it lol

[@myconight]

You just can't Leaf it alone!

[@HFG]

😆😆😆😆

[@DiablitoSpeedz]

What’s up buddy ! Good one 👍

[@HFG]

Thanks! I really appreciate you watching. I've been so slammed I haven't had a chance to watch anyone's stuff lately :(

[@HFG]

Wtf!! I got unsubscribed!! Why does YT keep doing this crap!?!

[@nathankerry3256]

Love those 2nd gen dodge even tho they got there problems I always find myself buy another one lol

[@HFG]

For sure!! I'm hoping to make a trip somewhere to pick up another one if I can. I like the trucks a lot, just can't find one that isn't a rust bucket up here. That's the same with any vehicle of this age around here. Thanks for watching, bud! There's a lot more Rusty Ram stuff on the channel if you're interested 👍🏼👍🏼👊🏼👊🏼

@@HFG I got 1990 dodge w250 3/4 4x4 with the gas 5.9 an surprisingly it isn't rust bucket for be here in Canada it needa a little work but nothing to bad

[@HFG]

@@nathankerry3256 awesome!!! First Gens are sweet! My 84 D150 is from Alabama so it doesn't have much rust. Your truck is a super desirable model around here. I'm sure it is up there too.

[@misterbulger]

My springs got twisted by a forklift. Now i have to take the clamps off and re alighn them. The insurance company decided to auction my truck off after i already bought it back and they broke it moving it out of the auction yard, where it was not supposed to be. I may press charges for a stolen vehicle and vandalism. Gotta fight this to the end and get paid.

[@HFG]

That's a bummer. Sorry man.

[@myconight]

I am waiting on getting my Nrphew from Toledo's Doge truck. I gotta put the bull bar, headache rack, and Ofcorse a bunch of metal work. I am debating giving it some Hips, by remaking the wheel arches, or just getting some replacement panels. He h as s the other stuff, but has to build up his bank account for the metal.

[@HFG]

I hope that one is in better shape than this thing :)

[@myconight]

@@HFG yes, but same spots pretty much, the wheel arches are the worst, but the truch is worth fixing.

[@HFG]

@@myconight nice!!! That'll be sweet

[@MortskeRepair]

Who picks up a damn harmonica and doesn't even play it!!

[@HFG]

😂 I have no idea who had their lips on that thing last lol Maybe a leper!!!

[@MortskeRepair]

@@HFG Hot lips!

[@HFG]

@@MortskeRepair I'll mail it to you so you can make your next video a music video :)

[@IronHorseGarage]

Which part is the rusty part..... That is probably the rustyest truck I've ever seen!!!! If you want a solid one you should probably come out here and get one!!!! I can't believe the dang brake line blew as soon as you pulled it out!!!

[@HFG]

Lol. I noticed that afterwards but I didn't want to render the whole thing again to add an arrow :) It's in pretty bad shape for sure. There are some down south that are in good shape. I might try to get one of those at some point.

[@CCAutoWorks]

Holy mother of rust I would want a tetanus shot before I got within 50 ft of that thing

[@HFG]

😆😆😆 for real!

[@JAWSatBCPerformance]

Hahaha… more broken dodge stuff..

[@HFG]

Thats all I have :) We all can't live in paradise

[@JAWSatBCPerformance]

@@HFG that is true…

[@JAWSatBCPerformance]

@@HFG would be fun if you did..

[@HFG]

@@JAWSatBCPerformance indeed it would. I'm a PADI Dive Master so living around the ocean would be great. Alas, tis not to be. 😢

@@HFG I just meant it would be fun for me…
