Simplest water pump ever made. Simply remove the air filter housing from the engine. Should be 2 bolts that hold it on and a hose clamp on the intake hose. Then remove the serpentine belt from the water pump pulley. Achieve this by using a wrench to release tension off the tensioner pulley which is located below the water pump. Then there are 1 bolt on either side of the water pump shaft. then just simply pull it out. You may need to use a piece of wood and a hammer to tap it loose but it should come out easy. And install is the reverse. This engine has a O-ring instead of a gasket, put a little oil on the O-ring before installing. water pump install for 2004.5 325 HP 6 series Cummins. look on the driver side of valve covers to verify which model you have. 04 says 305HP 04.5 says 325HP

2006 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 4x4. What fuse runs the 4x4 please?

It isn't specified. There is more than one fuse that covers transmission. You would need an auto electrician or a transmission expert to connect a pro grade scan tool computer and diagnose if the switch or solenoid is faulty. A scan tool at this level is bi-directional and can command solenoids to operate and confirm that they do.
