    Best video! Thank you. That little upper bearing is very hard to find and expensive. Only found on ebay @ $30.00 but needed it. Thanks again!

    FYI, from a professional collision repair tech. You don't need to wait to disconnect air bag, there's no built up charge, lol.
    I've heard rummers that static electricity can set them off, and technically you should wear a ground strap, but I've disconnected hundreds and never wore one and never had one accidentally deploy, now I've intentionally deployed them, fun stuff!
    The only way I know to deploy is physically connect 12 v, or smash vehicle into something.

      Also look up Dodge ram steering fix, someone's installed their "bushing kit" on that column at some point, pretty common fix, you probably should have just taped that one in/up a little, there's also a space above there that people install a collar of some sort to tighten things up a bit, RUclips it!

    What was the number of the bearing? Mine is loose on the other end, even after installing the Rock Solid kit.

    Where did you get the bearing and bushing you installed behind the wheel?

    So the automatics do not have the sping on the shaft only the manuals have them

      Mine is auto and has one. I have a rock solid ram steering kit coming to delete the lower bearing and replace it with a bushing. The reviews in the forums suggests its the best thing you can do to help with slop after replacing the rest of your steering from the box down

    Hey there guy, great video, I’m actually doing this exact same thing to my truck, rock solid ram truck steering has a permanent fix for this. Check out their video on it I purchased it and will be installing and uploading the video on my channel.

      The bushing falling out that he addressed in the engine compartment *IS* the rock solid ram truck steering "fix". I have it on mine. Their bushing is fine. However, the plastic hose clamp retainer just a piss poor choice, imo. I think the washers and metal collar he used in this video are a much better solution. If you hit high speed bumps or wheel your truck it will actually stay put. Also if you want to be able to put a little preload on the assembly like factory spring system, then perhaps a belleville spring washer and/or thrust bearing assembly might help extend the life of that upper bearing behind the steering wheel.
