NEW GUY! 1998 RAM VAN 1500 (318/short/2 rear doors/no slider) - August 31st 2017 8:41 pm
HEY! My name's Graham/Graham Cracker/Graminal or basically anything else related to Graham. Got a smokin' deal on a 1998 Ram van 1500. ($200!!!!! NOT FOR SALE) Needed it for a band rig, work at a dealership, boss gave it to me for scrap price, needs next to nothing for work. **104k miles!!!**
So basically, I feel like I can do any, and all cool things to this van to make it *run forever, sound awesome, and perform well, because i got it so cheap, AND I'm a technician. So I need ALL THE INPUT I CAN GET from all you veteran RAMVAN enthusiasts! LET LOOSE! I'm about to do stock pinion and carrier bearings this week unless someone tells me exactly which rear end is best in these. otherwise it needs a radiator at some point and a tiny bit of rust work. (upper control arm mounts are pretty thin, and far front left corner behind bumper on subrframe? Whatever you wanna call it. not on body, and not really supporting anything.) Let me know what my priorities should be with this badass DAJIBAN!!
