Hello, everybody ! I am happy to discover this website, it has been very useful saving me a lot of time finding some problems I had with my 89 Ram 50. I bought my truck 18 years ago from a neighbor that used to live next to me. It had grilled a deer , but still run fine. It just suffered body damage and broke an A/C line loose to where it wouldn't hold charge any longer. So I replaced the grill, bumper, marker light and hammered out some, used a toilet plunger on the rest. Used the truck for work up until 9 years ago then I used it to haul off trash or pine straw enough to keep the battery charged. Had somebody offer to buy it, (even after everything I told them needed to be fixed) I really was't ready to part with it just yet. Then the wife wanted to know what I was going to do with the money, I told her I was going to get a newer truck for the spare. After she got done jumping up and down shooting sparks out the ass, I decided real quick like to just keep it . So there now. And I have just about got everything repaired that needed, new tires, 198 thousand miles. I'll just drive it some more (Next time I won't say anything about selling it ! ) And life goes on !

Hi and welcome to mightyram. Your wife badgered you to keep the truck? You have been spared double regret (so many owners come back to them, they're something else...) If you have pics, please add them to your thread. Nice work on saving the truck after the deer related incident btw :)
