| Ray mentioned that the Ram was
involved in a wreck before he bought it. There are some signs of it. The
main clue was the misalignment of the front bumper. The passenger side was
hanging 1.5-2 inches below the headlight. I spent a few minuets loosening
bolts, jacking up the bumper, pushing here, pulling there. I realigned it
the best I could without replacing any parts.
The drivers side running board was also loose by
the back door. The bracket was missing. I fabricated a new bracket and
installed it. The running board is now firmly in place and will support a
step up.
I noticed one of the exhaust tips was hanging
loose. The hanging bracket was broken. It had been welded before, so it's
really time to replace it. Since a hanging and shaking pipe can cause more
damage I'll patch the bracket one more time till Ray stops at a muffler
shop. |
