Just bought 2004 Ram 2500
They were 4600s since my vehicle is 2WD. Smoothed out the ride by reducing the harshness of the ride considerably. New shocks, front end and tires all made an amazing difference on my 2500s ride. It will never be as smooth as a 1500 but that’s to be expected for HD vehicles. Sent from my...- usocazy

Just bought 2004 Ram 2500
Did the exact same thing on my 2004 Ram 2500 Hemi. Replaced UCAs, LCA, tie rods, ball joints, etc...Went through 3 sets of Gabriel Max Control shocks before finally switching to Bilsteins, best ride has been on the Bilsteins - so much smoother. Got a really good deal on an aftermarket...- usocazy

Help!!!! Rear Speed Sensor "open"
Speed sensors are plugged into the rotor area of the wheel hub. ABS module should be located on the driver side of the firewall. At least that’s where it is on my 2004 Ram. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- usocazy

A/C ISSUES
Awesome! Cheap and easy fix. My resistor was cracked but replacing it didn’t fix my problem so we moved to the ignition switch. Only $65 total for both parts so hopefully no issues for the next 8-10 years. [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- usocazy

I had intermittent AC then it completely went out. No power to the fan/blower control but my AC and defrost mirror light illuminated. My remedy is in the write up I pasted previously. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- usocazy

2500 Hemi MPG.......?
My 2004 Ram 2500 get about 13 mpg- as most folks are saying. Pure stock everything with a Hemi and empty bed - daily driver in city & highways. Tried all the tricks to get better mileage but no luck. I don’t drive a Hemi for fuel economy anyway. [emoji1303] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- usocazy

2008 Ram 1500 Air Conditioning Fan issue?
So I took some pics of my fuse box schematic. Still not sure which relay to replace. Looking for the one that controls the fan/blower. Any recommendations? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
2008 Ram 1500 Air Conditioning Fan issue?
Which relay is it? I think mine finally went out completely after the fan staying on then having intermittent power to the fan. -
[SOLVED] Help with air conditioning problem
So my AC has been having intermittent problems. Fan/blower turns on at times on demand, other times it won’t. AC and side view mirror defroster lights come on without fail. Pulled the AC controller, from inside the cab, off to check power to the connectors. Had power to all but the black/green... -
Opinions on Bilstein shocks for 2WD
I installed both sets this weekend along with changing out the broken down driver size cushion. It’s amazing how much better the truck rides now with both of those projects being done. I shouldn’t have waited so long to do this!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Quad cab rear door unlocking noise
Changed out the actuator in about 90 minutes thanks to a YouTube video and taking my time. No more embarrassing strained groaning noise when I lock/unlock my truck. So nice!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Quad cab rear door unlocking noise
So my driver side rear door started making a very “strained” noise whenever the locks are unlocked - whether via the remote or exiting the vehicle. I’ve pulled the panel off but the noise is internal and I cannot visibility see any deficiencies. Anyone have this problem? I’ve attached a link... -
Opinions on Bilstein shocks for 2WD
Think I’ll give the 4600s a try then. I’ve replaced all front end pieces, tires and shocks. Sounds like these might help with the rough ride I have. Anything’s better than bottoming out on every pothole. [emoji35] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Opinions on Bilstein shocks for 2WD
Yeah - I’d be installing them myself. Did the other 3 sets of Autozone shocks that have blown so I’ve got experience. [emoji35] Are you saying the 5100s are a little smoother? I found some on eBay for less than $300 for the pair as well. Bilstein B8 5100 Monotube Shock Absorbers Front & Rear... -
Opinions on Bilstein shocks for 2WD
Thanks for the feedback on the Bilstein shocks. My 2500 is my daily driver and very seldom haul or tow anything, mostly mulch every 6 months for my yard. [emoji16] I found a vendor that would do a full set of 4600s for just under $300 shipped. I run stock suspension. Is there that big of a... -

Opinions on Bilstein shocks for 2WD
I have a 2004 Ram 2500 quad cab (Hemi) and have gone through a few sets of shocks and am thinking on upgrading to Bilsteins. I’m currently running Gabriel MaxControl shocks from Autozone with a lifetime warranty, which has been nice because I’ve gone through at least 3 sets in the rear and one... -
