    Synthetic Oil

    Gently massage the loom out of the way and all should be good! ;) Initially on my then new 19' and now my current new 23' my Lube Tech told me that there was an issue in seating the RP 20-820 oil filter. I gently reminded him that the existing loom must be gently repositioned out of the way in...

    What does "Rebel Suspension" mean on a Rebel 2500?

    ^^^^THIS!!!!!!!! A thorough read on our Forum will net you results on the stock PW platform indicating that it's NOT intended for real TT and/or hauling purposes overall. This stock set up is factory sold for off-roading applications. The PW platform is truly intended for "off road"...

    ZF Transmission pan

    If you want a drain plug type of transmission pan: PPE is the one! The OEM MOPAR one is a consumable and thus tossed every time it's opened up.

    ZF Transmission pan

    The PPE pans have a drain plug, and allow for about 2 more quarts of oil to be in there as well. However, one should still be changing out the filter at every OCI in my opinion. Unless of course you are draining and refilling at low intervals to ensure you cycle out all the old oil...

    $70k Truck Falling Apart at 38k Miles

    I look at it like rent, unless of course one can purchase outright with cash and not owe a penny. But, buying outright in cash, one still loses! ;) "In the end, the house always wins" (quote from Casino). So, finance or lease, one is renting a vehicle; paying bi-weekly/monthly payments for it...

    Oil change

    Here's my $0.02..... If one runs their vehicle (engine) 0 to x-amount under the OEM recommended OCI intervals in a 12-month period..... At the very least (gas or diesel engine).... change the oil and filter with premium synthetic oil and an equally premium synthetic media oil filter once per...
