Hey guys, had some problems overheating about a week and a half ago. Was helping my buddy haul two Chevy 350 engines in the back of my truck, each weighing about 550 lbs. Got stuck in traffic for about 45 mins with the a/c on, and I had to pull over and let my truck cool off cause my temp guage almost maxed out. This a normal problem Ram owners have? They temp here in arkansas is a normal 95-105 in the summer. It was a 97 degree day when it almost overheated. Anyway, changed the water pump about 6 months ago, so I knew that was fine. Bought the 180 T-stat from MOE's a couple days ago and it arrived so I installed it today, then went for a drive around through the city for about 30 mins with the A/C cranked up full, and my temp never even made it to the halfway mark. SHIBBY! Problem fixed I guess! Checked my old t-stat in a pot of boiling water and it seems to work fine, so oh well whatever. Im happy now! Oh, also replaced the header gaskets and she runs like a dream now! Still waitng on my stage 8 locking header bolts though...
