    2019 1500 Laramie rear seat belt replacement

    I got a 3 day service library subscription (which I didn't know existed when I originally posted this) to get all the official info. Andy

    2019 1500 Laramie rear seat belt replacement

    All my rear seat belts are damaged and I'm swapping them with OEM parts. It looks to me like I'll need to pull the rear seat to do this. I am wondering two things: 1. Does anyone have any tips on doing this work? Are there any gotchas? 2. Do I need to be concerned with air bag stuff when doing...

    Hard start (bog/high idle, fluctuating idle) after sitting for 2+ days

    This started happening again and I couldn't figure out why. It didn't seem to be "bad" gas in so far as I was filling up at a variety of places and it kept happening. I was still running 91. I decided to start running 87 (around here the options are pretty much 85, 87, 91) and though it has only...

    Hard start (bog/high idle, fluctuating idle) after sitting for 2+ days

    Just figured I'd update that this stopped happening. I have no idea why. My only thought is that maybe I got some bad gas (and due to where I live, it's possible the town was running that gas for a while).

    Hard start (bog/high idle, fluctuating idle) after sitting for 2+ days

    This recently started. The truck has no power mods. I have a Pedal Commander but it has been installed for months with no issue. I run 91 octane. If the truck is parked in my garage for 2+ days, it starts hard like this. It seems like it can sit for ~24h and be OK, which seems odd (I'd think if...

    Disable SiruisXM?

    Every so often, for reasons I don't think are my fault, I start my truck and SiriusXM starts playing. I think this happens when they extend my trial. Based on how often they call me, even though I have told them repeatedly I will never, ever subscribe to them and have no interest in using their...

    Rear end thunk shifting from park into or past reverse when on an incline

    No surprise, but using the auto parking brake solved it, as you'd expect. Thank you. I'm not doing anything with neutral, though, I'm just putting my foot on the brake in drive and holding it while I put it in park, and not lifting off the brake until the parking brake is engaged. I imagine...

    Rear end thunk shifting from park into or past reverse when on an incline

    Hey, thanks. Yeah, I do have that feature, and I do have it disabled. I'll turn it on and see how it goes. That was one of my first thoughts but it just seemed like it shouldn't be necessary (I have never experienced this on any other vehicle), but if it is, that's fine. I may still want the...

    Rear end thunk shifting from park into or past reverse when on an incline

    Just trying to figure out if this is considered normal on my 2019 1500. It doesn't sound or feel good, but also doesn't sound terrible. My driveway has a bit of a steep incline on the way in and out. I stop there to open and close a gate. When I shift out of park into drive whether I'm coming...

    Stock bed anchor capacity ratings?

    I'm surprised I'm having such a hard time finding this, but I can't seem to dig this up anywhere online or in the manual. The manual talks about the capacity ratings for the bed rail cleats (which I don't have), but nothing about the stock anchor points at the bottom 4 corners of the bed. The...

    Trickle charging a 2019 with eTorque

    Cool. Yeah I said trickle charger but actually what I have is a Battery Tender Plus, so it's go the smarts to switch between float charge and such. I have used one on a 300ZX TT I have forever and it has been fine, and I used one on my 4runner (which I just traded in on this Ram) and that was...

    Trickle charging a 2019 with eTorque

    I did read through the entire manual over the weekend (I got the truck on Friday) and though admittedly some of it was skimmed, I don't recall seeing anything about it, but did fully read the section on jump starting and there was nothing in there that deviated from how I'd jump start any other...

    Trickle charging a 2019 with eTorque

    Hey All, Probably a silly question but I'm asking it anyway. I just got a 2019 with eTorque and was trying to confirm if there's any reason leaving it on a trickle charger is a bad idea. If it weren't for the eTorque system I don't think I'd even question it, but I don't know if there are any...
