Consumer Description

RM 3500 4X4 LONG BED QUAD CAB. I HAVE A STOCK TRUCK. TIE ROD ENDS ARE SHOT, STEERING GEAR BOX IS SHOT, BALL JOINTS NEED TO BE REPLACED BUT NOW FALL IN THE "LIMITS" THAT DODGE DECIDED TO EXTEND THE MEASUREMENTS. MY TRUCK IS A 2004 WITH ONLY 106,000 HIGHWAY MILES. MY FRIEND HAS THE SAME TRUCK BUT DUALLY 05 AND HAS 62,000 MILES AND HAS TO REPLACE THE SAME THING OTHER THAN HIS STEERING GEAR BOX FOR NOW. COST FOR ME TO REPAIR WITH LABOR IS $1300.00 HOW CAN PARTS GO OUT THIS QUICK IS BEYOND ME. I HAVE OWNED EVERY TRUCK AND NEVER HAD I NEEDED TO REPLACE THESE KIND OF PARTS WITH LOW MILES. *TR
