Hopefully this will be similar for my 05 3500…The driver side axle ujoint
is chattering on mine…Have heard the replacement parts are a bit steep
and it was recommended that the wheel bearing be changed at the same
time…
Thanks! My mechanic just called and told me that during the process of
replacing my break rotors on my ’03 Ram that my rear u-joints were shot.
Now I have a video to show her how important this is. 🙂
the problem is i suck ad editing my own comments.i had this really long
post that didn’t sound so critical , but after editing for space it got all
chopped up and totally turned around in content.Sorry for coming across as
condescending.I shoulda just deleted it.LOL
@3ARANCH I’m not sure if this is different or not. It should be pretty
close though. Make sure you have both front tires off the ground if you
want it to turn by hand.
Video looks great, however I don’t suggest putting anti seize or any
liquid/grease on the threads on the lug nut studs. It will change how much
they will be torqued to when you go to tighten them. If a stud breaks
because it’s rusty, just replace it. 🙂

Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Should be pretty close.
when i hit 55mph it makes a loud vibrating noise could it be the front u
joint? its also leaking but little spots from there also
Good luck and thanks for watching!
Did you check the front U joint? Could also be the front axle actuator
needs to be replaced.
Thanks for the comment and for watching!
I’m glad it went well. Thanks for the comment!

@Jthumper That’s a great idea using the log splitter as a press!

@slowmutants Thanks for the comment!
Couple hundred I think.
Very straight forward instructions. My Ram 2500 is a 2006 but everything
looks familiar. I’m going to give it a shot tomorrow. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the video. I was fighting with my 92 YJ to get that uni off. did
the other one about three years ago but forgot how i did it.
That’s what else I was thinking mine still has the cheap factory vacuum
lines to it as well
I just replaced my ujoint today same side, on my 96 2500 with the the v10
and the dana 60 front end. now its leaking from where the shaft goes in.
Thanks for the comment!
nice camera, good quality. great video
Because like I said, It doesn’t matter.
Start watching @ 4:00 If you can’t get it from that then you really should
not do this job.
I guess I don’t quite agree… Torqued correctly, no matter what’s on the
threads, they will stay at that torque. Thanks for the comment!

@pologenius21 Thanks for the comment!
What is the torque specs on that bolt?
