RAM 1500 - Video tutorial

Model: RAM 1500 BR, BE, MK 2 - Years 1994-2001
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: How do you replace the RAM 1500 front shock absorber?

In order to replace the front shock absorber of the RAM 1500 you must first lift the car and then unscrew the bolts of the wheel corresponding to the shock absorber to be removed. Once this wheel has been completely removed, it will be possible to loosen the screws that fix the shock absorber: those that fix it from the bottom will be accessible from the bottom of the axle shaft, while those that fix it from the top will have to be loosened by accessing the shaft motor. At this point the old shock absorber can be removed and replaced with a new one.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
