    What ball joints do I need.

    IMO the offset, AKA "adjustable" ball joints are a waste. Those came out several years ago and although they do say that they provide a closer alignment, I don't think it justifies the added cost. Your OEM ball joints are not offsets. I'd look for a reliable brand and look for ball joints with...

    Parking Brake Tensioner Adjuster Thingy

    So there I was today having my annual truck inspection from the highway patrol. One of the requirements is to put your park in drive, engage the parking brake and the brake has to hold the truck in place. Well when I stepped on the brake I got that awful feeling of the cable snapping and my foot...

    Loud Radiator Fan

    From reading the other posts, it sounds like it's an issue with the fan clutch not disengaging. I didn't expect that from a brand new one! Perhaps I bought the wrong one. Since it was a Sunday I was forced to buy an Autozone DuraCRAP part. There was only one on their website. Now looking at...

    2008 Ram Big Horn 5.7 Hemi 128,000 miles Hey guys. Last week I got a crack in my radiator and finally got around to doing it today. Everything went smoothly, or so I thought. After it was all put together and I started my truck, i was relieved to see everything cycled flawlessly. I did notice...

    5.7 Timing Belt questions

    Soo a buddy of mine has a Honda CRV and broke a timing belt. No biggie I tell him. We will have it fixed in a few hours. Then I find out he has an interference engine and more than likely bent the living hell out of the valves. Then I thought to myself, "Oh sh*t, I have 100,000 on my 5.7 Hemi"...

    CB Radio

    Being a FF/Paramedic I have used quite a few different scanners and CB's. I personally love Galaxy CB Radios. The Galaxy DX-939 is an amazing radio. As far as scanners go, look for a triple trunking scanner. At the FD we just digital trunking on 800mhz system which normal scanners don't pick...

    Performance Rotors EBC vs. Chromebrakes

    Duhhh. The outside and hub stay that color and there is relatively no price difference between normal rotors and painted ones. If there was, I would buy high temp paint and paint the hubs and outside myself.

    Performance Rotors EBC vs. Chromebrakes

    Obviously EBC rotors are great. But I never heard of Chromebrakes. Wondering if anyone knew anything about them or used them?? Need new pads and a rotor. Might as well make it spiffy. Right now I have the OEM rotors and the caliper is painted red. My truck is red with some of the badges...

    Caster/Cam Bolts frozen

    Took it to another alignment place... They confirmed they are frozen and barely got them to move. They said its close enough that if i rotate the tires it should be ok on the wear n tear. I cant really heat it easily because the bolt is right by a lower control arm bushing. The guy recommended...

    Caster/Cam Bolts frozen

    Hey guys.. What do the caster/cam bolts look like? I know they are on the lower control arm because i took my truck to the stealership for an alignment after getting new tires and they said the bolts are frozen and they want to replace both lower control arms for $1400!!! They said they soaked...

    Excessive whining noise from amp

    You know what I'm talking about... that awful whining/excess noise that gets worse when you step on the gas. I've routed all the speakers wires as far away from the amp power/ground as I could. Is there any way or device that can eliminate or decrease this noise?
