Sent the truck for service last week and was greeted with a plastic bag full of bits of metal. Ooh I thought, whats that. It turns out that when my mechanic dropped the axle oil like a god mechanic does he filtered the old oil as it came out. There were small pieces of metal in there indicating something is breaking up and excessive end float. So I start to do my research and it turns out that its a problem with the 1500 Ram. So its off down to a specialist differential builder tomorrow in Birmingham to have an uprated diff put in. All donations will be gratefully received. Am just thankful it did not self destruct whilst up in Norway next month. Preventative maintenance rules, but ignorance is bliss.
