30. 2003-2012 RADS DODGE RAM 2500 & 3500 STEERING SYSTEM REBUILDABLE ADJUSTABLE UPGRADE
RADS= REBUILDABLE ADJUSTABLE DODGE STEERING
Heads up! Minimum 2 week lead time as of 6-1-25. By placing the order you will get on the back log list. It is marked in stock to allow you to be able get on the back log list.
Finally the steering kit every Ram owner has been waiting for! Proper geometry! rebuildable joints that you can easily tighten up in minutes as they get loose! Yes this kit costs more, but that is due to USA made with superior materials and joints. This is literally the best and the last steering kit you will ever need to buy. I make no money after the sale, every other company gets to sell their cheap joints to you every 30k miles and you need another alignment again.
Our steering was designed to keep OEM geometry which lots of people think it's bad, but in truth the T style is really good the joints just wear out fast. With keeping the OEM geometry, you have less chances to get death wobble or a dead spot in the steering wheel.
Features include:
- Drag link and Tie rod are 1.5" DOM 1080, with thick 3/8” wall tube.
- Custom made 4340 Heat treated Chromoly Joints are adjustable to take up slack as the joints wear in to keep a new steering feel all the time. Not overseas ones that wear out in 30k miles like other aftermarket brands. These joints have been used in the Military and Nascar for over 20 years.
- Rebuildable joints, IF you actually ever need to rebuild the joints, you won't even need a new alignment after rebuild.
- OEM Geometry, the reason nobody does this is because it is too hard to manufacture with good materials. By keeping the original geometry this means you don’t get the normal aftermarket dead spot in steering wheel and tie rod flop. Yes, we mention this a lot and for a good reason.
- Our passenger Tie rod is gated like the original joint. This is huge to keep a good feeling in steering wheel and not have to use rubber rock crawler style wobble stoppers like other aftermarket companies do.
- Alignments can be done in the truck by one person!
- NO JAM NUTS. Complete game changer here. Jam nuts are great if you get to the required torque of 200ft lbs. But most people only can get them to 90ft lbs and they come loose causing premature failure, even with a Japanese's assassin washer.
- USA made (nobody else can say that)
- Heavy Duty Gloss Black Powder coat to withstand winter (as much as possible)
- Will fix Death Wobble (see tech section on death wobble)
- Fits 03-13 2500 and 03-12 3500.
- Ships in a rifle case you get to keep (free shipping isn't actually free, average it costs $105 due to the weight)
* NOTES (and the ugly truth) *
Steering alone will help but not fix other steering related issues if you have these items bad so, Please check them prior purchase or install.
- track bar/bushings (don't do just replace with cheap bushings, it is a band aid at best)
- 14mm bolts on 03-07 track bars (need 16mm from 08-13)
- bad ball joints (or moog, same thing)
- worn out steering box
- bad lift geometry
- bad alignment
- super worn out mud tires, or China tires.
- massive negative wheels with little tires.
- fits 4wd only

Well built , nice finish..we will see how it holds up
2007 Dodge Ram 2500 4.5” lift. I’ve had this truck for about 12 years. I’ve have been through a handful of different steering setups from OEM to part store brands. I had just come to terms that this truck will always have sloppy steering like everyone else says. I decided to try Chris’s steering system kit after seeing tons of posts on social media from people with nothing but positive feedback. The parts came in quickly, packaged professionally and with good instructions. Even came in a hard gun case for added shipping protection which I thought was an awesome idea. Build quality is amazing. Seems super tough and very well designed and thought out. Had a question, shot Chris a text and he got back to me quickly which I think is great thing. My truck has never driven better. Steering is super tight and responsive. Drives like a brand new truck. 100% happy with this system!
I bought the upgraded steering links to convert by old "Y style" steering to the "T style" along with steering box brace, and intermediate shaft bushings. I also upgraded by steering box to the Mopar 6 bolt. My truck now drives better then it did when I took it off of the lot back in 2006. Chris was awesome to work with when I needed his help and directions. He answered by calls and texts even on a Saturday and Sunday. I wish more companies had this level of service. Thanks again Chris for everything.
Arrived this past Thursday, installed 2 days later.
Steering is very responsive. I also did EMF ball joints and replaced U-joints for the front axle shafts. Had one cup on the drivers side where the bearings were powdered. Passengers side was junk. Will get an alignment next week. One issue i had were the grease zerts on the drag link, zerks were to far recessed in the joint for my grease gun. Replaced with taller ones.
I almost wonder if jam nuts on the threaded adjustments would be a good idea.
I haven't put the kit on the truck yet but sweet baby Jesus, just opening the most American shipping container to be rewarded with the THICKEST and sturdiest feeling linkage in the history of man......shewww what a feeling.....I bought a true American product. So far so good, I fuckin love it. Keep kicking ass guys!
