THERE IS NOT ONE DAMNED word ABOUT THAT O-RING IN THE INSTRUCTIONS!
If you have to read the instructions......ok , I wont say it
Dodge didnt tell you about the weak ball joints for quite awile either, well untill people started loosing the front wheels anyway.
Did they increase the size of the new ball joints or just improve the size that was already in there

I have a 01' 4X4 1500 series. There's been a lot of complaints concerning the ball joints on the recall site but nothings been done yet.
Robo, That looks seriously dangerous. Maybe not as bad as it looks but look at that picture and imagine it was somebody else. What would you say to them.
Considering this was the last time you worked on your truck...

Ya should have called a pro, are there any pros in Hooterville?

What can I say? I like to live on the edge 
Between the floor jack and the cinder block I figured if I was to be crushed it was meant to be.
Dodge says to "not" pull the fluid from the converter.
Yes, there are pros here on the outskirts of Hooterville, but these services are really expensive here and you have to make an appointment 5 days in advance for anything. I figured this was a routine maintenance job. That's what it says in the vehicle manual.
Don't know what the differences are in the ball joints but there are a lot of new parts on that front end. There were three recalls in all according to the Dodge dealer service manager.
Oh, I don't feel as bad as I thought I would. Must be in better shape then I thought

at 170k miles on that trans fluid it might be the only thing keeping the trans together. slip your tire UNDER the truck and buy some jack stands, you cheap ass. if you die NOBODY will defend Goodman on here.
