Red-Head Steering Gear Box 09-20 Dodge Ram 2500 / 3500 RH2881

These steering boxes are built in Washington state and offer unmatched steering control and longevity. We have personally run several brands and have had the best results to date with the Red-Head. This gearbox allows you to retain the factory steering shaft, as well as the stock pitman arm. This is a major advantage especially those with lifted trucks with dropped pitman arms, as you will not have to change your pitman arm.

HYDRAULIC STEERING ASSIST PORTS OPTION: Red-Head offers a porting option for those who are either already running a hydraulic assist steering, or plan to in the future. If you choose to make this upgrade to the box (from the drop-down menu), your gearbox will come with two pre-drilled and tapped ports with plugs. For clarification, hydraulic assist is NOT something your vehicle would have come from the factory with, rather it is an upgrade that adds a hydraulic ram to the steering linkage to aid in steering. Most vehicles do NOT have this option, thus if you are unsure if you have it, you probably do not.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• This gearbox features a 6-bolt top cover.The 2009-2012 model years typically featured a 4 bolt top cover, but this 6 bolt is interchangeable even with the 4-bolt factory cover.
• You have the option for us to include a pre-paid return label with the shipment for ease of returning your core. With this option, you will merely need to drop the re-packaged core with the accompanying shipping label at a FedEx drop-off. Otherwise, it will be your responsibility to supply your means of returning the core. Pre-paid return label option is only applicable to the lower 48 contiguous United States. Please contact us if you have any questions. Cores with broken shafts or cases will receive partial or no core refund.
• If Gearbox is going on a Power Wagon you must determine if you have a 3 turn to lock or 4 turn to lock. If 4 turn to lock please call in for order.
