On a 2nd gen 2002 4wd 4x4 does the stock pitmen-arm need to replaced to do this upgrade? Source automotive sells this kit and has the option of a pitmen-arm for $75.00. kit is massive. my dad has a stock 2000 powerstroke with t-type steering and the tierods on that a the same diameter as this dodge upgrade kit. dodge finially got with the program!

I'm iterested in this up grade,this part# fits a 2001 ram 2500 8800lb 4x4 ?
|
I can't attest to the fit of the kit with stock backspacing 16" wheels, but I do imagine it could be a problem - the tie rod ends are pretty big.
I used my stock pitman arm on the 2001. Didn't need to upgrade or modify in any way. No reportable bumpsteer either. Chadcycle - I see no reason this wouldn't fit your 2001 the same way it fit mine. |
Is this upgrade for helping with "wander" or strength?

Steering Stabilizers?
What is going to work for dual stabilizers once I have this kit installed on my 2nd Gen? Obviously The center mounting bracket will have to mount to the 08-10 style steering linkage due to size, but what about the brackets on the outsides? Has anyone mounted the outside brackets that come with an 08-10 kit to a 2nd gen? Or was it all custom? just looking to order a kit and want to know what I should be looking for! Thanx in advance for your time and responses!

I don't have any experience with a dual stabilizer setup, but i'd imagine the tie-rod bracket size would be the only thing you'd need to change. I ran mine with 35's and no stabilizer for quite some time with no ill effects, so I'd be surprised if duals were even needed, but I don't know your situation.:tu:
|
Is there a detailed write up on this mod anywhere? My front end is a sloppy mess.
|
I have a 98.5 24v, would thta qualify as a 'newer 2nd gen' for the purpose of fitting this part ?!
|
How are you liking the Kore setup you put in as well? Is it just the leveling kit?
