    Replacement Transmission Oil Cooler Lines?

    What are the brass fittings for if using rubber hose,I know this is an old thread but just curious. I had the dealer take the rubber hose off and install proper factory lines before I purchased. I was concerned with the hose blowing off because there was no barb or anything for the hose camp to...

    Popping from passenger side rear

    When ever my 99 flexes a little going over a bump of any sort or in hard turn at low speed I get a loud pop that sounds like the passenger side leaf spring area but could be somewhere else on that side. I've had it on the lift and don't see anything worn or signs of metal rubbing. It's a 4x4...

    Trans slip

    Bought the truck to pull a trailer with my jeep 3 or 4 times a year. I'm hoping the trans will be up to the towing. Will only be 3 or 4 hour trips but I'll cross my fingers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Trans slip

    Well took it in today and had the front bands adjusted,took them maybe 20 mins plus the test drive and the slip is gone. He said it needed quite a bit of adjustment,seems awesome now so hoping its trouble free for a few years. Just out of curiosity I priced a rebuild and was told $2300.00, so...

    How many of you have salvage title trucks?

    I just purchased a 99 club cab with a salvage title but I'm not sure why,I'll have to research that. I know it was salvaged in 2002 with 20,000 miles so I assume damage was pretty major but it now has over 120,000 so I'm not really afraid of it. I own an olds BravadA that was totaled shortly...

    Would you buy a ram 1500 with 146k on it

    Buy it,clean it up and resale if nothing else at that price 2nd generation trucks in my area sell for between 4,000 and 5,000 If decently clean with that mileage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Trans slip

    Well the worst has happened. I love the second gen trucks but was leery of trans problems after having issues with a brand new one that I bought in 2001 that gave problems from the beginning and I didn't keep long. Anyway I loved the truck and always wanted another. I ran across a 99 club cab...

    3.92 gears

    Thanks for the advice guys,that makes sense or I'll defeat the whole purpose of the better gearing. One thing I find odd though is the build sheet stated 265's but the sticker inside the door stated 245's. Gotta say I love the truck already I owned a 2001 several years ago for a very...

    3.92 gears

    Willis,have you done much towing with it? Yeah the tires are kinda small they are 265/75's,I'd like to have a little bigger and slightly more aggressive but they'll have to do awhile being they are fairly new. I'd like to find something in between those and what's on my jeep Sent from my...

    3.92 gears

    I plan to tow lowboy with a 5,000 lb jeep on it 2 or 3 times a year and was hoping this truck was stout enough to handle it. It seems the heavy duty service group consists of a larger alternator and transmission cooler. Hopefully this truck will do me then if the trans just holds up from what...

    3.92 gears

    According to my vin my 99 club cab has 3.92 gears and HD service group (whatever that is) it also has heavy duty engine cooling and heavy duty shocks. Is this something someone most likely ordered with plans of towing a lot? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gearing

    Is there anyway to tell by my vin number which gearing I have? I'm new to the dodge truck world and will be towing a lowboy and I know certain gear ratios are preferable. Oh by the way I have 1999 with the 318 and automatic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
