    245/70r17 vs 265/70r17

    So I have a 5.7 2500 CCLB with 3.73 gears that came with 285/70r17 mud terrains. I want to go to a smaller all terrain for better highway mileage... I'm currently seeing 11 at 70mph. Even a bump to 14 would make my day! The 245s way less but will cause the engine to rev more in OD. Anyone have...

    Stuck in a pickle... Need advice.

    Thanks. It makes me feel like I'm driving an international wrecker I drove while deployed... slow as **** and sucks fuel but I love it.

    Stuck in a pickle... Need advice.

    Well I took the plunge and got the 2500. Got a better deal than I thought and isn't a bad ride like I thought. It's got a flowmaster exhaust that is way to loud so I will probably be selling for factory setup. Also came with 285/70r17 firestone MTs that are brand new... Will be trading/selling...

    Thanks for the advice guys. I got a couple days to think about it before I go to check it out.

    Stuck in a pickle... Need advice.

    I am also partial to regular cabs... my last 4 trucks were all rcsb. One thing I forgot to mention is we have 3 large dogs that go on any trip with us lol. We are fine with her honda most of the time but a baby busts the limits. I'm in the Army so I drive 2500 miles twice a year for leave with...

    Stuck in a pickle... Need advice.

    Good points. I do most of my own repairs however this truck is still under warranty. I figured as much on the ride quality. I'm going to test drive on Saturday so I will find out first hand. This will be my 5th pickup but first 3/4 ton.

    Stuck in a pickle... Need advice.

    I have spent countless hours planning my build on my RCSB only to find out I have to get rid of it. Fortunately I didn't buy or modify anything yet. So on to my question. I found out my wife is pregnant, meaning I want/need a 4 door. I want the 5.7, 4 door, and 4wd. Oddly enough I found that...

    Challenger oil filter on truck

    That makes sense. It is pretty crowded under there. I'm going to use it on my next oil change.

    Challenger oil filter on truck

    So I was changing my oil the other day and had an old challenger oil filter laying around that I compared to the ram filter. The challenger filter was a lot larger and I can not think of why FCA would do that for the same engine. Anyone know of a benefit or downside to using it? It will...

    Max HP with factory warranty

    http://www.ramforum.com/f44/straight_bolt_dyno_results-24192/ Just found this thread. Very similar to what I am doing only no underdrive pulley and on a 6 speed platform.

    Max HP with factory warranty

    Unfortunately the only dyno I can find at this time is about 45 minutes away. Unless someone knows of a dyno in Lawton, OK.

    Max HP with factory warranty

    So to start off I'm an idiot and about a year ago bought a new 2016 ram and was left with the decision to void the warranty or wait 6 years for it to expire. :suicide: I have talked to moe's about some goals I would like to obtain to include damn near everything but the bottom end but I think...

    Gears or Long tubes

    You can buy a brand new 3.92 front for $700 online and just swap it. I found rear for $1400. Is it more expensive than having a shop do it?... yes. Do I trust shops in my area to regear?... no.

    Gears or Long tubes

    Thanks for all the input everyone. I can't remember where but I saw a thread where someone had switched back from 3.92 to 3.21. Anyone know about this?

    Staggered tires on 4g

    As long as tires measure the same diameter the abs shouldn't be tripped.

    Gears or Long tubes

    I do realize I need a tune with LTs and I am 4wd so I would be sticking with 3.92.

    Gears or Long tubes

    AFE setup is pretty inexpensive compared to others. I was planning on kooks. I had them with a cam on my challenger and loved it.

    Gears or Long tubes

    Thanks for the input. LTs sound like the easier way to go... Still undecided.

    Gears or Long tubes

    If you had the option to go from 3.21 to 3.92 or get long tubes and y pipe which would you do? This is assuming cost is more or less equal. Which would benefit performance more? Also this is on an 8 speed.

    Amp mud terrain tires

    I had the 315/70r17 amps on my old chevy. I will say from an off-road stand point they are awesome. The lifespan of them is another issue. They will chunk and wear quickly. Balancing was terrible. I had so many stick on weights they had to stack them on top of each other like a pyramid lol. Also...

    Staggered tires on 4g

    Anyone run staggered tires on a 4g? I've been back and forth on what I want to do with my truck but I was wondering how a 305/50r20 rear and a 275/55r20 front would work. Anyone running this successfully? Any pics?

    Opinion on trading a 2014 for 2016

    I would trade. That's a pretty good deal on a new truck. I ended up trading a used 2014 for a new 2016 and the only difference was the color and transmission but I wanted the 8 speed and the loan was almost the same.

    Looking for best leveling shocks

    I ran Kings on my 07 chevy and it was one hell of a difference. They did require upkeep on the heim joints and needed to be rebuilt every now and then but that tends to happen with a prerunner lol.
