Description
They finally did it! That's right, Dodge may finally be admitting to the issues with their gearboxes for the 2003-2008 HD Rams. Dodge/Mopar has released a gearbox upgrade for the 2003-2008 2500 and 3500 Rams that comes complete with an extreme duty gear box, pitman arm, and upper tie rod.
This is one of the beefiest steering boxes we've seen. The first thing you notice when you just LOOK at this box is the HUGE sector shaft, like nothing we've seen before! This sector shaft coupled with the upgraded internals will help to eliminate the Dodge steering wander issues that have plagued them for years. If you are running a lift kit that requires a dropped pitman arm, you will have to replace your existing pitman arm with one designed for this larger gear box. Also, if you have a steering box brace, you have several options as the original box will not work with this box. First, you can just take it off as in many cases, you will no longer need it with the beefier box. Secondly, you can order an entirely new brace designed to work with this steering box. And finally, you can order a new sector shaft extension nut designed to work with the larger sector shaft, and in most cases, you will also need to reposition the bearing capture plate which involves cutting it off and re-welding it in the proper place. And as always, if you have any questions about proper fitment with your particular application give us a call.
About Mopar | Factory OEM Dodge Ram
While its true that we are huge advocates for the aftermarket industry, in certain instances, the factory really got it right! For this reason, we offer numerous original equipment replacement parts, as well as genuine Mopar upgrades / accessories for your Ram. For those unfamiliar, Mopar is essentially the brand associated with any factory parts for Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, or Jeep vehicles. The name œMopar was originally coined in 1937 to launch Chryslers line parts and accessories that all start with antifreeze. The actual name œMopar came about from œmotor and œparts, pretty creative huh?! Well, maybe not that creative, but the name has stuck this entire time and become a household name in the automotive industry.
