    Engine stall while driving 04 Ram Hemi

    I had the same problem. I replaced multiple parts just to find out it was the EGR. Replaced that and all is fine.

    antifreeze smell

    I have had the same antifreeze smell and some grit on top of my antifreeze overflow reservoir. From what I have read or can find it is normal for you to have a slight antifreeze smell due to the steam let out of the overflow tube. This also creates the sand like particles on the overflow...

    Best AT tires for everyday use and snow?

    I've been using BF Goodrich AT KO 2 for a long time. (size 285R70/17) I only have to replace them every 8 years due to wear. My wife and I think they are a very safe snow tire and take peace of mind knowing how well they have done for us in the snow. They are pricey, but I will continue to get...

    Long tubes headers or shorties

    I put a set of Pacesetter ceramic coated long tubes on my '04 1500 over 10 years ago. Shorties weren't even a consideration. I've been searching for a replacement set, but can't seem to find a set of long tubes in ceramic coat. Plain black paint everywhere I look though.

    Conflicting OEM Spark Plug Gap Specs

    I looked up the plugs and gap in my Daimler/Chrysler Corp. 2 book dealership 2004 DR Ram Truck 1500-2500-3500 Service Manual. What I have listed for a 5.7l Hemi is Spark Plugs: Champion - RE14MCC4. Electrode gap is: .045 in. Hope this helps.

    5.7 internals meet outside world

    I went with MSD Blaster Coil Packs, NGK Irridium plugs, and Taylor ThunderVolt 8.2mm spark plug wires in my '04 5.7l Hemi about 10 years ago. I pulled the plugs last month and they look like I put them in last year. Might be an option you would consider.

    Inherited my Fathers truck, want to swap a Hellcat motor to honor him.

    Another possible cause of fuel mpg decreasing at 170k could be that the fuel injectors may be a bit clogged, but not gone and can be cleaned. That and spark plugs are the cheapest way to get back mpg.

    Headers to replace headers.

    Yes I have CAT's. Unfortunatly I live in PA where you have to have emission testing. Also Pacesetter says that the black paint is only for manufacturing and trasportation not for high temp ratings and will burn off relatively fast.

    Headers to replace headers.

    Yes, I have one, but was worried about debris getting in where it doesn't belong. Are there liquid solvents that would evaporate so the paint comes off the outside and whatever liquid goes inside evaporates?

    Headers to replace headers.

    So, anywhere that has sold the PaceSetter Long Tube Headers 72C2211 are out of stock. I went on Pacesetter's website and the item # does not exhist. My best guess is that they stopped making them. Now they and all the sellers I have looked at do still have the black painted version. My new...

    Exhaust opinions

    I ran dual 3" off my Pacesetter long tube headers. I have them exiting to the sides of the truck bed just behind the rear wheels. I have 2 Flowmaster 40's and it sounds pretty damn good.

    Headers to replace headers.

    I have a set of PaceSetter Long Tube Headers 72C2211 that I got from Moe's Performance. They have lasted about 13 years. Time to replace them. Moe's doesn't carry them anymore, but Summit Racing did, until I ordered them. Now Summit Racing only offers the black painted style of these headers. I...

    Exhaust Assistance

    Thank you for that information. I was unaware that they only make shorties now. I did; however, find long tube headers for my application on Summit Racing and other shops. Now I just need to narrow down the best price on a quality header. Again, thank you for the information.

    Exhaust Assistance

    I purchased a set of Pacesetter long tube headers, part # 72C2211, from you 02/22/2013 for my '04 Ram 1500 5.7 hemi. After almost 10 years they are on their last leg.

    Hub Assemblies

    7 years ago I replaced my factory front wheel bearing/hub assemblies with a set of Timkin. Then 3 years ago I replaced those with another set of Timkin. Not going that route again. Can I get suggestions on brands you guys use. I think I want a set with tapered cone bearings rather than ball...

    Headers

    I have an 04 Ram 1500 with the 5.7L Hemi. I put the Pacesetter long tube headers on. They are the Stainless Steel with the ceramic coating. I've had them on for about 5 years and they still make the compliment to the Flowmaster mufflers. I have noticed that there is a small amount of surface...

    What kind of spark plugs do you use?

    I have an 04 Ram 1500 with the 5.7L Hemi. I took the 16 old copper plugs out and replaced them with the NGK IX Irridium plugs. I immediately noticed less of my Hemi tick and have had them in for 8 years now. I notice a slight fuel economy drop from 19.7 mpg to 17.6 (city) and 23.2 mpg to 21.8...

    RockAuto Collector Magnets!

    I thought you discontinued the magnets as I have not received one in the the last 2 or 3 orders I have placed. They were more exciting to see than the awesome parts you send out to me. I'll have to sit down sometime and get a list of parts I've ordered for my truck and send you a pic for a...
