    Exhaust 'Rip" shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear

    Ever since I installed a Carven Progressive bolt-on muffler, I noticed my 2013 Ram 1500 will let off a loud exhaust 'Rip' when up shifting from 2nd to 3rd on a hard acceleration (8 speed auto). It's hard to describe but almost sounds like a Jake Brake venting the exhaust between gears on a big...

    iDatalink ADS-ALCA Problems

    My son bought a used 2015 Ram Tradesman and we noticed that it had 3X lock button remote start. We also noticed the driving lights stay on at all times like DDL's. Didn't think much more about it but a few months later and it is starting to have issues! The truck will randomly shut off at...

    Stainless Fender Flares? Anyone have them?

    I am thinking about adding some stainless fender flares to my 2013 Bighorn to help hide some rust that is forming above the rear wheel wells. I would attempt to fix it first with rust restorer and color match paint, but my truck is Western Brown Pearl and will be tough as hell to match! So I...

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    So, I noticed that Carven was having a sale on Progressive direct fit muffler kits for $262 each/free shipping! That made my mind up to pull the trigger ASAP but I got to reading about them online and there seems to be a ton of people that say the Progressive is a great tone at idle and good...

    Rust 2013 - Fix or Trade?

    So yeah, as the title states, I have some rust popping up on my 2013. It is above the rear wheels and a little worse on the left side. I took it to a body shop guy and he said that the bed had a reinforcement above the rear wheels and it tends to hold dirt, mud and salt. He estimated over...

    Radio Changes Stations and skips songs on USB?

    My 2013 8.4 radio has been pretty solid for the last 7 years but yesterday it started messing up! Seems like when I hit a mild bump in the road, the USB would skip and play the next song or bounce back to the beginning of the song playing. Then today, I was listening to 107.1 fm and it jumped...

    Talk me into installing Shorty Headers to fix exhaust manifold leak!

    So, I have been thinking about shorty headers for my 2013 5.7 Hemi...looks like I could get a set of headers installed for around the same price as letting the dealership replace the manifold gaskets! My exhaust is bone stock right now so would the shorties drop right in and hook up to the...

    Any extended warranty help with blown exhaust gaskets?

    I have a 2013 Bighorn that failed state inspection last night due to a blown right hand exhaust gasket with at least 2 broken studs. My factory powertrain warranty has run out but I do have an extended 3rd party warranty. They are saying the the warranty will not cover the job 100% which I...

    Tailgate LED Light Bars...do the mess with towing package?

    I am thinking about getting an OPT7 Triple Redline LED bar but I'm not sure if it will mess with my towing package and dash alerts? Being that it is plugged into the trailer harness, I would think it would assume I was towing a trailer? Also, any interference with back up cam?

    Check Engine Light after washing engine bay?

    So, I was washing my engine bay, as I have done 100 times before, and noticed that the check engine light is now on and won't go off after key cycles? Truck runs good, no hesitation or miss. Just that damn little light glowing at me from the instrument cluster! What might I have done to...

    Will a 2500 hood fit a 1500?

    So I'm browsing the interwebs as I do every morning and I ran across the AEV Prospector custom Ram's! Truck porn at it's best but my real interest is the heat reducing hood! What are the chances that this hood would fit my 1500? Are 1500 and 2500 hoods interchangeable? If not, does anyone...

    Replaced 3rd brake light due to water leak

    Instead of messing with the Home Depot weather strip, I decided to replace my 3rd brake light with a new Mopar light! It comes complete with bulbs and gasket! The new gasket seems like it is thicker and more rubber like than the original. I paid under $17 for the complete unit and swapped it...

    Random Idle At Start Up

    My 2013 Hemi has 27000 miles on the clock...it just now started idling a little high randomly at start up. It has always idled at maybe 1200rpm at start up and then drop to 900 after a minute or so but the last few days, it will start fine an idle at 1200rpm and then climb to 1500rpm and then...

    2013 Interior LED Swap Question

    Is there something different with 2013 interior lights? I have seen several places that 12's and 14's are easy to swap out for LED's but 13's have some kind of different map light panel that is a bear to take apart and I also saw that people with 13's had problems with the lights not working...

    S&B Intake with LED's?

    I have a crazy idea to get an S&B intake with the plexiglass window on the top and install some red LEDs inside the box. I would probably wire it to the hood light so it isn't on all the time. Has anyone ever done this? Is it even worth the hassle, LOL? Just curious on everyone's thoughts?

    LED Tailgate Light Bars

    I'm thinking about adding an LED tailgate light bar but I have seen so many on the roads that are burnt out, half work or just plain shitty looking! Do any of you guys have a recommendation an a decent product? So far, I like the looks of the Recon Xtreme with turn signals and also the...

    Hemi Tick

    It is pretty well known that we all have some type of Hemi Tick and that's fine but I have been noticing something weird. When I start my truck, the engine runs normal and has very little tick but as soon as I slip it into reverse or drive, the tick gets louder...almost like a slight rapping...

    B-Pillar Vinyl Wrinked - Remove or Replace?

    Ever since I got my truck, the driver's side B-Pillar black vinyl applique has been wrinkled on the bottom of both front and back. I can probably get it replaced under warranty but maybe it would look better removed? I do kind of like the look of solid black with my newly tinted windows, but...

    Bead balancing for tires?

    Anyone running bead balanced tires? Just wondering how you like it? I just got my 275/60r20 Cooper AT3's mounted and the shop recommended bead balancing for bigger tires so I gave it a try. I had a vibration at first but the shop found that one of the bags didn't break open so they fixed...

    Goodyear Silent Armor or Goodyear AT Adventure Tires?

    Anyone rolling Goodyear Silent Armor or Wrangler AT Adventure Tires? I know everyone poops a kitten when they hear Goodyear, but I like the looks of these tires and they seem to be the perfect cross between on highway and light off road that I need. I drive on highway 99% of the time but I...
