Angry The Unofficial, Official My Dash Cracked Thread

Well, I didn't see one on here. I can only imagine HOW many of us on here suffer from the evil gremlins that sneak in and crack our dashes all to pieces.

SO, is your dash cracked? What model RAM? What year? When did it first "go" on you?


My RAM,
99 2500 SPORT
bought it cracked, but wasn't very bad @ 145k is an EPIC failure now, falling apart everywhere. Is more "Grand Canyon-ish" then a dash board anymore!

2000, cracked in at least two places, think they were there when I bought it in 2007. But a new dash won't make it run better, so it isn't even on the list!

2001, cracked dash, did it while I was driving, about 10 degrees out, popped about 10 ft out of my driveway. I used some clear epoxy on both ends, and it hasn't spread yet...

2001, no cracks - dunno how though.

LMC truck parts has an option as well.
