    front bump stops

    Struggling to find replacement bump stops for my 2006 2500. I'm just trying to replace the ones that are on the lower control arms that fit into those cups. Mine are long gone. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Sometimes they're called jounces I think.

    Intake manifold

    Man your evap code could be the gas cap. And what are they saying specifically about the manifold? Could it just be the manifold gasket?

    Catless Question

    Hey guys. 2006 2500 5.7. I'm planning on going catless. Does anyone know if we can still use the anti foulers on the down stream O2 sensors to not throw a CEL? If so can I drop them in where they are? Or do I need to move them back some with O2 wire extensions? I'm not going to tune the...

    Rear End Thumping

    Hey guys. I need some help on this one. 2006 Ram 2500 5.7 2 wheel drive 3.73 LSD. Runs, drive, and shifts fine. 163K miles. I'm getting a thumping sound from the rear end area. I would swear it was tire noise. Worse when it's cold. It's a whomping or thumping sound that increases in...

    Engine swap

    I would think engine mounts will be the easiest part of that swap. Can you write a 5.7 calibration into a 4.7 PCM? A 5.7 from a same year donor truck with the harness and PCM might be considerably easier.

    Dash Cluster Malfunction

    Hey everybody. I picked up a 2006 Ram 2500 hemi. It's a pretty cool old truck, 3.73 limited slip, heavy duty, etc. It's got some problems I am trying to work out. I have to double click the key unlock in order to start it without the alarm going off. Which is peculiar. I have confirmed it...

    ‘18 QC V6 vs a Tacoma. Lost

    I drove one of our company V6 8speeds this morning. I was blown away at how good it ran. Getting 17+mpg around town. It's no slouch.

    porting and polishing

    I thought I read where the Gen 4 hemi heads flowed pretty good stock. Near what the 6.1 heads did. The cam and tune alone are going to add a lot. Are you considering gears? That was the best upgrade I did going from a 3.55 to 4.56. There's a guy on Ebay selling ported throttle bodies...

    Help Needed!!! 13 swap into 09

    Interesting scenario. I think you're asking for trouble with option 1. As your post mentions, you've got the wiring harness issue, the 2 to 4 wheel drive, and other routing (exhaust) issues that could show up. And it's not only the issues but the time suck to figure them out. I like option 5...

    Almost ran out of gas last night

    What was that movie where the guy was always taking the helicopter out and almost running out of gas every time? Was it And Justice For All?

    True Duel exhaust...Why do few do it here?

    The back half of mine was already dual. All I did was eliminate the silly squish (y pipe) added an X pipe, dual in dual out muffler - true duals. Huge difference. More responsive. I've had H and X pipes on several different trucks -the X pipe is hands down better for scavenging. In my own...
