    Window tinting

    In eBay you can buy precut tint for specific vehicles. It's laser cut and it's accurate. I spent 12$ on already cut tint. 5$ on solution and $4 on a squeegee. I watched videos and did it carefully. I now have a shop-perfect 21$ tint. You'd think it was $210. Next up - windshield strip

    ABS and BRAKE Light come on at highway speeds??

    When I take my ram on the highway, and only on the highway, once I hit over the (estimated) 65MPH mark, the truck's ABS and BRAKE lights turn on, and will stay on until I turn off the truck. However, no difference performance wise. Any ideas / solutions??

    Flatbed Build

    To start, I have a 99' 1500 4x4, 180 for miles. The guy I purchased the truck from (craigslist) must have dented the truck pretty bad, so looks like he decided to take a drill and try to pull out the dent. Looks like someone took a .22 in full auto to the side of the bed. On top of that, my...

    1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1 Ton Classification

    Yes, I understand the basic understanding is 1/4 ton's are generally rangers, colorados. 1/2 tons are generally 1500's. 3/4 tons - 2500's, etc. But what is the classification of each? Does it go by GVWR or??? Thanks

    Front End "Wobble"

    What your expriencing is something pretty common in Dodges, due to the coil-spring front suspension systems they have. There's quite the list of reasons and diagnosis for this. I would check the track bar and drag link bolts, to make sure their all tight. For mine, my steering was what was...

    Heat not warm?

    Temperature gauge is always at an all time low, no matter how long I drive. Pretty much stays at 130, maybe a LITTLE over. The truck has always and still does run completely perfect. Besides the heat.

    Heat not warm?

    99' 1500 5.9 360 I've noticed no matter how long i idle or drive my half ton, the heat will never get warm. It doesn't stay cold, but it doesn't get warm like heat should. It becomes 'neutral'. Any ideas / how can I fix this??
