So did we ! Until we discovered a simple, effective solution.....
As you know, despite their strengths, 2nd Generation Dodge Ram trucks are infamous for clunky, imprecise steering.
On 2nd Gen trucks,['94-'02] the fault lies hidden deep in the steering column lower bushing: it's designed with too much play & prone to wear.
Spending upwards of $ 700 for a new factory column (that has the same fault) still won't satisfy your need for precise steering, or eliminate the tendancy to make 'clunk, rattle or popping' noises over rough surfaces.
Not only does our 'Rock Solid' Ram Steering Fix eliminate any clunking or popping noise that your column may exhibit, but it removes about 99 % of excess play, virtually transforming the steering feel with a precision you never believed possible !
If you've upgraded front end components already, you'll finally 'feel' all those improvements like never before !
"Our '97 Ram 4x4 steers better than new, with no 'sawing' on the steering wheel to keep it straight. Road feel is dramatically improved. My hands are still going down the highway !"
The kit features:
1) A re-engineered, precision made, lower Delrin bushing assembly w/ retainer, [now "Patent Pending"]
2) Step by step, color illustrated instructions
3) Installation tool
This product & approach makes the column rebuild procedure easily within the scope of the mechanically inclined Ram Truck owner.
This Upgrade Kit also represents a much more economical alternative compared to buying a 'new' steering column from a Dodge dealer (that has the same defective design) for up to $ 900.00 !

TDR member Jim McCarty reports on the fix on his '96 Ram : " The Rock Solid Ram Truck steering fix kit has given my truck a very solid feel to the steering. The truck feels like it's new. Very confidence inspiring. . ."
