Well I noticed the rear of my truck was leaking. I figured it was the pinion seal. Had it in the shop yesterday to have the pinion seal replaced and was given some bad news. Turns out there is a 1/2" of play in my pinion and the rear needs rebuilt. I was given one estimite of 6-700 just for bearings and if the ring and pinion needs replaced double that. I won't be going there thats for sure. I called another place this morning and they wanna take a look at it tomorrow. I thought the guy was suppose to call me back today but hasn't yet so maybe i miss understood him. I don't even know whats all messed up in there. I'm going on vacation in about 8 1/2 weeks so i need the truck done asap. Looks like I'm gonna have to use the stang money once again to fix the damn Ram. On a happier note for the ram I got the header leak fixed. Put some remflex gaskets on it with stage 8 locking header bolts. Painted them up while I was at it too.
heres a few pics and vid
Heres how the gasket looked when I took them off
Heres how they looked when removed haven't had them on that long either
Heres how they look after painted and reinstall
