    Yep, talking to him as well and he's helping troubleshoot. Figured this would be another good source :).

    Parking Light Out Error

    Update: Disconnecting the battery and re-connecting it makes the driver's side turn on, but only briefly and then it turns off again.

    Parking Light Out Error

    Hey guys, I have a 2014 RAM 1500 5.7L Sport Crew Cab. Today when leaving dinner I got a "parking light out" error on my dash. I have FX-R retrofit HIDs, dual color switchbacks and halos from Jeremy @ RetroShop.us on my truck. I noticed the driver's side halo and switchback is not turning on. I...

    Cracked Ceramic & Failing to Light

    Hey guys, I purchased a Retro Shop kit this week. It was the one linked in the sticky on this board for my 2014 with factory projectors. When I was doing the install I noticed the ceramic insulation was cracked on one of the HID, probably during shipping since they didn't come in the plastic...

    Paint Correction of My Daily Truck

    I recently picked up a Ram 1500 Sport as a daily, showed some photos of it here before. It was covered in dealer installed swirls, from the dealer running it through their car wash. The paint seems super soft on these trucks, you can scratch it with your fingernail. I decided to remedy that and...

    I think I found Bruce Banner's Day Job

    Yea that's actually a pretty cool feature. I like the Mobil 1 because I can buy them in bulk cheap and I happen to have two vehicles at the moment that use the exact same model. They have an adapter thing for the Mobil1 filters at most auto stores around here, makes it super easy as well...

    Weird thing happend today...

    Automatics can stall rolling back significantly in forward gear. I've had it happen a few times in various cars. I don't think anything is particularly wrong with your car, at least not based on this happening. It's just what happens when you put a load on the engine that it can't sustain...

    JBA long tubes

    On other domestics 1 7/8 mains were more popular for people going bigger (i.e. blower, heads & cam, etc...) Some say the 1 7/8 is too big for basic boltons. The thought was that you may get less torque gain on the low RPMs as the power band may be pushed up the RPM range without bigger power...

    I think I found Bruce Banner's Day Job

    Yea they are the same size. I think what they mean is 3x filtering capacity, as in it can trap 3x more material. Which seems reasonable enough if their filters are truly higher quality than whatever they compared against. They're just champion labs filters, which are perfectly fine, Mobil1 are...

    I think I found Bruce Banner's Day Job

    Thanks fellas, was able to get the ****** off finally. It was indeed the factory installed one, said so on the bottom. I just wanted to swap out to synthetic now that I've driven it for a week. Tried the screw driver method, no go, I could see it start to rip the filter. It's just too flimsy...

    I think I found Bruce Banner's Day Job

    Yea you know what, after I posted that I was thinking the same thing, you're probably right, i think this thing is pinching it.

    I think I found Bruce Banner's Day Job

    The drain plug was surprisingly tight, but came out without issue. I do agree it shouldn't be that freaking tight. I can give that a shot. It's not that my current wrench is slipping, it's just that the filter is breaking under the force :(.

    I think I found Bruce Banner's Day Job

    Tried to do an oil change on my new 2014 1500, after a bit of a break in. Drain plug was simple enough, but the damn oil filter will not budge. It's literally breaking under the force of the filter wrench. Srew driver in filter time or what guys? The incredible hulk should stick to breaking...
