Description
This PSC Motorsports Big Bore Steering Gearbox for the 2003 - 2008 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 4X4 is a NEW replacement unit for the problem-prone original Dodge steering.
The PSC Motorsports Dodge XD steering gear box was designed around the 2010 and newer Dodge Ram XD platform and modified for a direct bolt-in installation using the OEM steering shaft, pressure and return lines and OEM 36 spline pitman arm.
The failure-prone lower bearing size has been increased from 35mm to 45mm to prevent excessive side-to-side deflection of the sector shaft, the main cause of "Dodge steering wander".
PSC is not aware of any aftermarket steering gearbox braces, including the SB300K, that are compatible with the SG853/R products.
No core charge - we do not need your core back.
PSC Part Number SG853
Note: If you are currently running the Mopar 6-bolt HD steering retrofit box (68170214AB), you will need to purchase Mopar pitman arm 68039930AA.
This steering box uses the factory M14 mounting bolts. The two bottom bolts are M14x2.0x215mm and the one top bolt is a M14x2.0x164mm. While it is very rare, some 2003 to 2008 model trucks used 7/16" mounting bolts.

IMPORTANT! TECHNIQUE TO PROPERLY CENTER YOUR NEW GEAR BOX
Make sure that any gear box that is installed is installed properly centered. Turn the input shaft all the way to one direction, then count turns to the full stop at the other direction. Split this number in half then turn the input shaft back to find the proper center. Once true center is found, make a paint pen mark at the top of the sector shaft that will still be visible once the pitman ram is installed, then make another line just above it on the gear box body. After the gear box is installed and the alignment completed, the lines must still line up perfectly. If not, the gear box is no longer centered and will wander on the road.
