Hey .. great video guys I really enjoyed it , very well explained . I’d say you’ve done that a time or two lol ! My truck came with 392 gears an 17 inch rims An I run 305 45 17 dot Mickey Thompson street an track for summer on rear An I also have 20 inch rims with 275 45 20s I run in winter ! 👍
Very well explained. That axle adjuster is a life saver! It makes it so easy to adjust. Tips I have to share for those who don’t have a press. Cut out the old bearing like shown in the video. Put the new bearings into your oven at 350 degrees for about at least 30 minutes (longer you leave it in the better result you get) Put your carrier and pinion in the freezer for at least 30 minutes. (The longer you leave it in the better result you will get) Take out your carrier and set it up on the table then get the bearings and it will just drop in all the way. Wait few minutes for the temperature of the bearing and the carrier to stabilize and it is set. (Usually take about 15 minutes) Repeat for the other side. You will need to do the oven/freezer again because the carrier would have cooled up too much for the other bearing to drop on. Do the same for the pinion once you get the correct depth as explained in the video. Then do the rest of the set up as shown in the video.
@@RacingRamFam haha my wife accepts it since I use my garage fridge since it only have my garage related drinks and food. Also I have an old stove in my garage as well for powder coating this reason. So I am golden. For those who don’t want to sleep in the dog house after getting someone in their household all upset, just wait until everyone is off to bed and do it in the middle of the night! 😂 But if you get caught, as my close friend always says,” it is better to get forgiveness than ask for permission” just sayin.
Good video guys I am about to do my rear end on my 77 Dodge D100, I don't want to sound like your Dad, but you only get one set of eyes. They don't call that tool a death wheel for nothing.
Hell yea bub, hopefully with the new gear that the trans will perform smoother an hookup an also pull that bog out but won't know until u can dyno run it again. So excited to see how she'll run an liked the content with breaking down everything, showing step by step, explaining tech tips, how or y, etc!
I’m running some 33” MTs, my new 4.56 gears came in. I don’t have the tools or know how, nor time, to do this myself so I’m taking it to my shop but I can’t wait. Don’t know what gear ratio it has stock, but I know it’s slow off the line unless I gun it to 3k+ rpm lol. I also use my truck for towing.
🎉Bravo! Thanks for this presentation, depth of knowledge, and details you shared. There is Expert knowledge of a 9.25 on display in this content for nerds like me to soak up. Keep at it!
Cuz if we support him that means he can do bigger and better builds and that's what everybody wants on this channel so show your support buy a t-shirt this is how much I like the channel I will give another 20 bucks if he put the Texas sticker on the back of whitey That's how much I love this channel and that's how I'll support him
@@RacingRamFam when you get one on the back let me know and I'll send it probably by that time I'll be getting another shirt so it will be $45 I'll be sending
Ladies and gentlemen I just received my t-shirt today I'll send the pics as soon as I'm not so busy at work so I can get to my storage unit where my truck is
Our church van is getting some rear end noise. I have been told axle bearing, or pinion bearing. After watching this I am going to give it a try. Where did you get the tool for tightening the carrier side bearings?
Just did that on my dodge not to Long ago I need that tool to adjust bearing preload turn out a front cv axle nut works welded it on a pipe and wawa lol
You could let us know more about that "special tool". Is it a nut on a shaft? Could I weld the right size nut to a shaft and have my own special tool or do I have to pay $146 to buy one on eBay? What size is the nut?
Hey man, sorry real new to this but I have the 98 1500 5.2 2x4, am I going to have to shim the side bearings, or is that something that's specific that I'll have to check. Thanks man great vid
@@RacingRamFam Thank you, I pulled the diff tonight, I made the mistake of trying to loosen the axle adjuster with the bearing caps still tightened, pulled the bearing caps and it is still tight on the adjuster . I can get about a turn and half going in or out and then feels like it binds up. Think it’s still material? I don’t think I would have cross threaded or damage the threads with about a turn on the adjuster Thank you very much
I have a chrysler 9.25 limited slip 3.55 ratio. What can I do to eliminate clutch packs? I am rear differential illiterate. I have watched every video I can find. One guy does it but he doesn't indicate what his replacement is or at least I have not found where he mentions it.
@@RacingRamFam Thanks I am afraid I will be rebuilding the differential. My rear brakes and seals are shot. It literally leaks axle oil into my brake drums. I don't hear anything grinding or rubbing yet. I know with a problem like this be prepared for a complete overhaul.
dude how the hell do you know how to do everything on the ol ram? i need to change out both seal on the front axle and i’m nervous about taking out the housing because i’ve never done it haha
Bro nice job can't wait for my t-shirt to come in and when I eventually go from a procharger to twin turbos I'll just bring it to you and pay you to put twin turbos on by the way I want to let everybody know where I get a lot of my performance parts for my 5.9 Magnum motor are Hughes engines, hipotek, of course jeg an summit racing, Moparperformanceonline , performance injection equipment these are the places that I'm getting my parts from to build my pro charge 426 hemi Magnum motor but if you don't have a stock bore and it's bigger like the one on my new engine I have my bored 60 over technically you'll be getting a 433 cubic inch motor if you put that stroker kit in I've been rebuilding this truck from front the rear for the last 2 years but this goddamn pandemic has been messing with my money flow so it's taking me awhile if things keep going the way they are it'll be another year and a half before I get my truck done and I have a 1999 Dodge ram 1500 4x4 sport with a 5.9 Magnum motor and because I'm from Texas I called my truck Chuck Norris

What gear set would you install in your 9.25? And why?
I have a 3.55 in mine because I’m running a 727. Have a 3.92 set for if I ever want to go to the track down the road.
I have 3.92s in mine 28" tires with overdrive

@@derickhorne713 lol yesssss 😂
I just got a press. I got tired of welding up contraptions to use along with a jack. Very nice tool to have.
I hate press fit shit. (Felt like sharing.)

Great video very good work.
Thank you!
Our church van is getting some rear end noise. I have been told axle bearing, or pinion bearing. After watching this I am going to give it a try. Where did you get the tool for tightening the carrier side bearings?
Yes prob pinion bearing and I made it my self out of a bar and two 36mm nuts
Cutting, Grinding, Pressing, Hammering... all in your Flip Flops🤣
You mean my work shoes lol
Just did that on my dodge not to Long ago I need that tool to adjust bearing preload turn out a front cv axle nut works welded it on a pipe and wawa lol
That’s what this is! I built that tool a while ago
You made that look like cake work
It really is easy
You could let us know more about that "special tool". Is it a nut on a shaft? Could I weld the right size nut to a shaft and have my own special tool or do I have to pay $146 to buy one on eBay? What size is the nut?
36mm if I remember correctly
I rebuilt my 9.25 a few years ago and either over torqued the pinion bearing or missed on the shims.
So now it's gotta be done again.... Lol
Live and you learn! I have rebuilt hundreds of 9.25s when I was a Chrysler tech
@@RacingRamFam FNA did they fail that much? 😆
@@indica_dogo868 yes pinion bearings like to take a crap around 170-200k on the truck
@@RacingRamFam time to look for a Ford 9" 😆
Can I use the same pinion shim for a 4:10 gear ratio ??
Gets it very close sometimes you can have to check your gear pattern
Hey man, sorry real new to this but I have the 98 1500 5.2 2x4, am I going to have to shim the side bearings, or is that something that's specific that I'll have to check. Thanks man great vid
No adjustable side bearing if you watch the video you will see the special tool I made for that
@@RacingRamFam yeah the bolt with the socket on the end? I gotcha thanks boss
Any Idea what may cause the threaded axle adjuster on the ring side not want to move? Thank you
Yes bearing material in the threads spray it with brake clean and blow it out with compressed air
@@RacingRamFam Thank you, I pulled the diff tonight, I made the mistake of trying to loosen the axle adjuster with the bearing caps still tightened, pulled the bearing caps and it is still tight on the adjuster . I can get about a turn and half going in or out and then feels like it binds up. Think it’s still material?

You could go open diff or a Detroit locker which is a spiral style locker

I know with a problem like this be prepared for a complete overhaul.
Great video, where can i get that rebuild kit? Thank you
Got my from rock auto! Koyo or timken make food bearings
did you make ur buy the backlash tool? thanks!
I made it
dude how the hell do you know how to do everything on the ol ram? i need to change out both seal on the front axle and i’m nervous about taking out the housing because i’ve never done it haha
Ya the front axle seal on the passenger side you need a special tool to do it but there not to bad
