    DPF issue

    People swear by the Lucas "Deep Clean" fuel additive. My truck only has 15k on it but the filter seemed to be getting full often. I tried it & it has made a big difference. Winter is over so I will be pulling my 5th wheel often so it should be getting worked enough over the summer months. I...

    Using the HD 3500 Auxiliary Switches

    WOW! I haven't seen one of those in a long time. I was trying to explain it to my teenage son a few weeks ago. He was nodding his head but I don't think he really understood.

    Joining the HD Family!

    Boy they are really cranking those trucks out now. Two months is pretty quick! Mine took just 3 weeks shy of a full year. A lot of after Covid supply chain stuff going on then. :rolleyes: I am really happy that you are being rewarded for your hard work! You will love this truck! My advise is DO...

    Sprung a leak

    Like most, my dealer is completely worthless! I have been to them multiple times, waited many hours, only to find myself fixing whatever the issue is. On this issue it looks like the seal is not thick enough around the 3rd brake light. With the screws as tight as they will go there still appears...

    Sprung a leak

    My 2022 3500 with just 13,000 miles has sprung a leak. It started dripping from the back dome light. Woke up this morning & drove to work (in the rain) & no leaks so far. Could this be due to the temperature swing we've had? We were in the single digits one week now we are up to the mid 40's. I...

    Mopar or Shell Rotella oil for a 2022 Cummins?

    I can't remember if I responded to you via pm or not. I bought the Banks CAI, intake horn, & boost tubes. It does get up & move better & I gained my mpg back that I lost installing bigger tires. Is it worth all the money I paid for it? Probably not, but their stuff is of high quality. Additional...

    Winter Operating Temps 6.4

    My 2016 would do something very similar except it would not get any warmer than about 200-210 which is where these newer gas engines run now. It was almost like the coolant system was larger than the truck actually needed. Once that thermostat opened up you could see the temp drop dramatically...

    2022 Ram 2500 6.4 Wheel well liners?

    Yeah it's getting ridiculous! They should only be an option on the Tradesman. Same with floor mats. That is an option at around $350. As you said... as much as these things are now they should come with a whole hell of a lot more! :mad: You are wrong on one thing... they are not approaching 80K...

    HD Brakes/ Tailgate Not Locking

    This is because having your rotors turned is about the same amount of money as new rotors. Back in the day a guy could get his rotors turned 2 or 3 times before they were too thin. As much as I tow stuff it always seemed like I warped them after I got them turned. Maybe the guy turning them took...

    2016 Ram 3500 Cummins 6.7 dually w/ ISEN tranny -- Oil cooler

    Yeah I had one on my last truck 16' Ram 2500 w/6.4. It dropped the temp an easy 25-30 degrees. I wasn't going to do it because my temps stay pretty level on this truck & then I found out that's not the true temp! :favorites68:

    Cummins Fuel Filters

    From the couple of test I saw on the internet Wix & Fram synthetic media filters are the best for the money. Now the bottom of the line paper media Fram filters are junk. Those are the ones giving people all of the problems.

    Filter and oil change comparison

    Yeah they have crammed a lot into a small space on the Rams. My company runs several Freightliner M2 trucks with the 6.7 Cummins and you can just about walk all the way around the engine. We don't service them but I think to myself this would be so much easier if it were my Ram.

    2016 Ram 3500 Cummins 6.7 dually w/ ISEN tranny -- Oil cooler

    I am a gauge watcher & I wasn't too happy when I found out they were not using temp sensors on everything! I know my tranny is fluctuating more than 2 or 3 degrees when I am pulling my 5th wheel. Is this all to just save money? I spent an extra 10k to have a Cummins you would think I could at...

    6.7 engine air filter

    I am using the Banks air filter & like it. I did notice an increase in power but I can't tell if the filter had that much to do with it as I bought their whole system & installed it all at once. Boost tubes, air intake horn, & filter. Their air filter system is huge! Takes up every bit of real...

    Lets see your Cummins !

    Well like they used to say when I was in high school... if it don't, go chrome it! :laughing1: My last truck had a lot of mat black accessories so I thought I would go in a different direction on this one. Not popular like the "black out" look but I like it, & I am the one making the payments so....
