Move and tie back power steering reservoir. 13mm. Leave air box alone. Take tension off hose clamp, and struggle to remove hose from Thermostat. tie back hose. Remove 2, bolts from thermostat . 10 mm. Swap out thermostat. Reassemble all.. refill with orange antiboil. Get your scanner after the fix to check engine temp and code..
Why did you fully drain your entire coolant system first? I did this same replacement on my Jeep a few months ago and just caught the pint or so of coolant that released to a catch pan when I disconnected the thermostat hose. That way I only had to add about a pint of new coolant back to the system (using a burping funnel like you did) and it was quite simple and cheaper to restore the coolant loop devoid of air pockets. Is the thermostat on the Dodge located at an usually low spot in the coolant loop?
Side comment: 303 Aerospace rubber conditioner is worth its weight in gold, literally if you use it on rubber parts that you want to live a long life such as, the radiator petcock's rubber o-ring, your CV boots when you do brake jobs, your rubber brake lines, and all the hoses under the hood that easily crack feom heat & cooldown cycles. Thise cracks wont appear. Rubber will go from.5 years to 12+. Buy the gallon bevause youll find other uses such as, your dashboard, outside AC plastic.lines, lawn furniture, etc.
I just did my yesterday went good my only issue is now that my temperature some time goes a little over the halfway mark it hasn’t overheated at all but what would be the issue y going over before I didn’t it use to sit under the halfway mark
I replaced the part the system was bled, but it won't pass.Emissions is keep showing the same problema drill for a 100 miles.Why not passing inspection

Exactly no need to drain the coolant at all also no need to remove air filter box or power steering reservoir...there is way easier way to do this
