Broken clockspring

How difficult is it to replace the clockspring in a 99' dodge? I recently went wheeling and hit a rather big stump. The only damage was a broken power steering box and clockspring. The clockspring broke because I kept turning the wheel around when the steering box broke. My horn still works but my cruise dosn't and the airbag light is on.

Thanks for the reply Martin, all I have to do is take in in and they will replace it free of charge?

I was just pointing to the procedure.

I installed the clockspring on my truck following those instructions.

It's easy to R & R the clockspring. I didn't like messing with the air bag. I thought it was gonna deploy in my face and scare the crap out of me.

Go here to check if your truck is eligible for the clockspring recall.
You will need your VIN
