- Hey guys,
Here with a video of me replacing my old worn out posi and gear set on my 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4.
The project alone was a huge undertaking (partly due to working on the ground), but filming it was also a huge task.
Hope anyone that find this video helpful to give me a like.
There will be more videos showing the drivability later on.
Here's a link to the kit I used.

I used Rockauto for the bearings and seals.
Thanks for watching.
Here is the UPDATE video

Rad video man.. most people wouldn't show the surprises that you inevitably run into when doing a job like this.. Thanks for showing how you got through them!
I came to see how it’s done, I’m leaving realizing I should leave it to the professionals
This made me chuckle 🤣🤣
Beautiful pattern for using the same shim. I'm seriously considering doing that and not having to do a trial setup, two crush sleeves doesn't sound thrilling.
Honestly. Out of all the rebuilds I have done, probably only 20% needed to have a full measured setup, arbor disc and pinion depth measurements etc. But I rebuild mostly chrysler 9.25, AA 11.25, or ford 8.8. Backlash, pattern, and torque to rotate are my main concerns.
@@thisworldisfckd6676 can I use the same pinion shim for 4:10 gear ratio I heard your not supposed to supposed to use the ones they give for rebuild kit to get right pinion depth wondering really need some help
@josehuerta801 a pinion shim is a pinion shim, but if your changing gear ratios then no, you will need to find the correct shim for that setup. Measure with a micrometer to double check shim thickness. I've never heard of not using Ford rebuild shims, and I've never had a problem with them.
The prices on newer trucks are ridiculous these days.
Really good video! Quick question, what size wrench did you use to pull the cross pin retaining bolt. Thank you!
8mm
Same on 4th gen 1500?
How do you like the posi? I have an 01 2wd 1500 and I'm thinking about ether a posi or some kind of locker. My driveway is crazy steep and all decomposed granite. I've been burning out the passenger side tire every year so I'm hoping something like this will help me out. When it rains it's next to impossible to get up the hill...
I like it a lot. I haven't even put my front drive shaft back in yet. There's a beach by my house and I took the truck out there on multiple occasions and it doesn't even need 4wd drive any more. Only time I think I'd use 4wd is if I was doing something I know I shouldn't be doing anyways.
you make it look so hard I have a 1998 ram 1500 with 3.55 i think stock i have a 20 ft trailer i pull its so gutless is 4.56 the way to go . im looking to do it my self would love to learn how to do the same. did you change the front axle . and what gear did you use . thanks
Well it's not easy lol. Working on the ground under a vehicle never is and I'm 240lbs. Lol. I pull my 20ft car hauler and it pulls like a dream. Your not gonna do any speed runs, but it pulls mine 65ish pretty well. My motor is worn smooth out too. Drinks oil, piston slap, and has tons of blow by. I can only imagine a truck with a good solid engine would pull like. I'll be rebuild my engine sometime soon. I haven't done the front yet (I don't mud). I have the 4.56s for the front too, just haven't done it. I've been to busy hauling cars and trying to make money.
On 4:10 gear ratio can I use the same stock shim to get correct pinion depth ??
Maybe. It's just something I always do and it's worked for me every time.
What are all the tools you use for the bearings and seals?
Bearing race and seal installer tool from Harbor Freight. www.harborfreight.com/bearing-race-and-seal-driver-set-10-pc-63261.html?campaignid=12144811130&adsetid=117789282438&product=63261&store=3052&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkIGKBhCxARIsAINMioI_jvhRZGPj_ZBcNY0t5lg8ws8xZN82zZ52Ii-jhlPdcimT_uIhqk8aAl0QEALw_wcB

I’m
How’s the Yukon dura grip holding up? Heard mix feelings
Fine in my book. I have a sandy beach near my house and I drove out there no problem and didn't need 4wd. Time will only tell the longevity of the clutches.
Question: What is the purpose of the "crush sleeve" on the pinion gear shaft?
Its to keep pressure on the outer pinion bearing inner race and keep it from moving on the pinion shaft. It also keeps pressure on the pinion nut.
@@james4wd236 Thanks. I think I understand. This distance varies from gear to gear, so it has to be somewhat conformable, I think.
How you like it so far ?
I love the extra power, but the trucks engine is worn out so its still pretty gutless. I will be rebuilding the engine soon more than likely.
@@james4wd236 plenum?
@@Im_a_dumnigga Has a brand new Hughes Plentum plate in it and new cylinder heads. The rings are gone, smoked out he breather like a freight train and burn a quart of oil every 300 miles. Pistons rattle if you rev it. Motor is on its last leg lol
any issues putting your stock center pin back in ?
You leave it in when you installed. Loosen the bolt and slid it half out to do the c clips.
That dash is all but gone...want a really fun project?? Yep that dash ..not oh boy super pain in the azz. Took hours to get it out of the junkyard truck .and was not nice about it .wire cutters and sawzall.tons of rivers to drill out ...then took another 4 months of looking at it in the shop. Two days later I had taken what was left of the super Arizona cooked dash.so brittle pieces shattered and fell into places never to be seen again .but soon worth it especially when I seen yours ..mine was the same maybe worse.you are not tricking anyone with the dash mat..they protect your dash..ha ha hehe real funny no .used to cover the dodge broken plastic dash like a sheet covers a dead body...but for real that dash is a check of a project but so worth it when it done..Nobody goes dam dude what happened to the dash.? Dam dude I had to spun out raccoons locked in my cab .what do you think pretty cool.? Well anyhow the screws in the backside of the passenger side above the globe box is the toughest.at of screw you can't see removing the printed towards yourself ..
