    EBC Brakes

    I am looking at EBC as well, with their slotted rotors and Red Stuffs pads - they recommend the Red Stuff for heavier vehicles like our trucks.. correct?

    Bad torque converter?

    MDS kicking in and out has been a thought, but this issue happens immediately after you start holding a constant speed anywhere between 60-100 kph. The MDS system should take several minutes to engage should it not?

    Missfire

    New spark plugs can make a world of difference. Try running a couple tanks of gas with a fuel injector cleaner (small bottle from STP for around 8 bucks at most stores) is also a cheap way to start checking for problemed areas. Coil packs may as well be checked while you have them out for the...

    Incorrect Engine Oil Code

    1521 code is being thrown on '06 5.7L hemi. Using the recommended 5w20 and frequent oil changes. Only scanned truck when I got an engine light recently due to P0137 Bank 1 Sensor 2 o2 sensor low voltage. Can anybody help with either one of these codes? I have thrown the 1521 before but not sure...

    Bad torque converter?

    My shift from 1st to 2nd is about 1500-1800 rpm definitely not higher than that when accelerating in a normal fashion. My trans has not been rebuilt. My ATF is still light pink and does not appear to have anything wrong with it. When I am cruising at 100 kph steady my rpm will jump from...

    Bad torque converter?

    Oh okay I see what you're saying. I am not sure to be honest. I should have my truck back from the shop tomorrow morning I will do some driving around and let you know what I get. Trying to iron out some issues with my (potential) drivetrain issues as well.

    Bad torque converter?

    When you say that it doesn't want to lock up in 1st can you hear or feel that? Just wondering what is tipping you off that the engagement is not occurring.

    Rpm Issue

    I changed my spark plugs about 15000 km ago. I was getting a Throttle Body Actuator code and I thought great I can clean this and that will resolve this issue. I cleaned the Throttle body and again - helped lessen the issue but it is still there. No codes anymore and have never thrown a TC code...

    no power in burnout...?

    I don't think our 2006 rams have traction control. If they do, it is weak. Never do I have the computer cutting into my power supply or putting it where I don't need it. I can't do a burnout on dry pavement myself but I do have 35's and stock 3.92 rear end so I'll save my driveshaft instead...

    Anifreeze leak/ high carbon bulid up

    Not sure about your antifreeze leak but definitely run some seafoam. Made a big difference for my '06 running a bit weird (still is but it helped).

    Rpm Issue

    Issue still present help guys! at 60 mph the revs jump up about 150-200 rpm and then back down in a cycle almost. between 1600-1800. When going 45 mph constant speed there is sometimes a shudder that comes from the rear end and a small bang.

    Regearing question

    Long tubes give better performance in the high rpm range. Offer little benefit in the typical driving rpm range. This is proven by hundreds of dyno tests that shortys keep the power band down low - this isn't just an opinion.
