racks on newer half tons are super easy to install, so you could probly save yourself a couple bucks by doing it yourself

I think his back is still messed up from the accident, he was trying to avoid having to get under a truck and work on it.

oh sorry i must have missed that, maybe if you have a buddy with a lift?

Yeah my neck and back have a lot to do with it. I have installed the rear sway bar, air bags, frame mounted camper tie downs, painted the underside, etc. That's more than what I can handle right now. lol

But the steering rack was going in at the same time as upper control arms anyway so I figured I might as well just get it all done at once.

Don't really have many friends in this state. I don't really work well with most people from this area, much different interests and personalities. Nick from Ohio (don't think he signed up here yet) is a good guy, and has helped me out a few times but I hate asking for help too much, you know...?

Got it all worked out now anyway. On to the next problem! lol (hope not)

sorry to hear about the accident. good luck with the install, hope it fixes your problem.

Ya the rack isn't hard to do at all, I just pulled mine maybe took a half hour, have a leaking hose that I need to go too...

Is this a hose to an oil cooler you installed Ramsey?
