Does anyone else want this dude to swing by with a six pack to shoot the shit with you as you fix your truck?

This is the clearest video for 3rd gen Ram starter replaceement, other videos don't even show getting around that shield or the proper socket size to use. Thank you.

Thank you for the detailed video. I found it very helpful. I found that for my 2003, the attachment bolts were 16MM, which will hopefully help someone else with a 2003 that watches this. Also, for the 2003, make careful note of how the power wire is attached. It is flat and has a shape to it. If you reattach it in the wrong position, you will not be able to re-install the starter, as the tension on that wiring connection will not give you room to set it in place. Glad to see that for the 2006, it has a 90* bend to it which eliminates the problem I found myself having. Again, thank you for taking the time to make the video. We all know that they change little things through the model years, and this was a great guide for me.

Thanks for the video. Especially showing the process once the starter was removed. Made it much easier to understand.

Some of these details are going to help me a lot more than the other vids for this starter. Wish me luck. Thanks by the way

Good video man thank you. I've got to change my friends tomorrow and this is everything I needed. Thanks again

Your Welcome !

Great job! Thanks you.

Very detailed, thank you!!!!!!!

Truck sounds good

2:26 That shield is a pain in the ass, makes it impossible to see the bottom bolt which means you have to feel around for it with the socket.

Thank you!! Made it look easy...

Super, tu m'as beaucoup aidé !

Great video! Thanks, mine is an '05 but I'm guessing not much difference...My today project!

Hey boss I have a 05 as well and it looks like I need to replace the starter. Is it done in a Similar as this video ?

Make sure to check your fuses and relays as well, and make sure that the power cable from the battery to the starter is intact and that your getting 12 volts at the starter solenoid when you turn key to the on position. There's also the possibility of ignition switch failure as well.

Good video

Thank you for the very detailed video, my "backyard mechanic ass" is going to attempt this. I think I can pull it off. I have the same exact truck

perfect 5stars sir...

Thanks man!!!

I liked the end

I have a 2005 dodge ram and the (2) starter mounting bolt hex heads are 16MM socket and not a15MM socket. Dodge must have changed the bolts to a 15MM hex head.

Little help?! I'm under the truck right now... the top bolt is my issue. I have a 6" extention, 3/8" drive and I have NO room and no leverage to crack the bolt? Any tips??

My 08 looks the same just the sensor is on the far side for me Still need all these extensions tho! Thanks

i wanted to see you get the bolts off. i cant seem to do it.

got a 98 dodge ram 1500 5.2l and pretty sure its original starter but it wont bust free. any tips to get it free? TIA

What is your exhaust setup?

So it’s bolted to the transmission?

Do you crawl under the truck or do you have a lift or hoist ? , seems like you had a lot of movable room there , been under my 2005 ram with 20 inch rims , and its tight , and i was wondering if you take of the wheel well guard , can you set at it on the drivers side ??

Just about every bolt on a vehicle has a torque spec. I didn't torque them tho just tightened them.
