    Intermittent rough idle then stall

    I've searched around a bit and haven't found anything similar to my problem. The issue i'm experiencing started about 8-10 months after I swapped my old 5.2l with a 5.9. I used the PCM from the 5.9 and replaced the cam and crank sensors when I did the swap. I have done the plenum repair...

    Relatively simple transmission upgrades

    I bought a used automatic transmission for my truck while I rebuild my broken transmission. The transmission I got has 190K on it as looks to have been rebuild at 143K (I can just make out ?43-?/?6/12) as I doubt it was rebuilt at 43K. I dropped the valve body to get a look at the bands and they...

    Onboard air

    I had a 200psi 12V air compressor under the hood for a while to provide compressed air to both my horn as well as my rear airbags + 25' hose with tire chuck. Recently the thing grenaded on me as it was rated at 100% duty cycle, but not really designed for 100% duty. Strange thing, it ran for...

    LED Projector headlights, or something not HID

    Earlier this winter after getting the new engine in my truck I went into a ditch on the edge of a farmer's field. Smashed the headlight mounts to smithereens and did the same to my grill. I'm quite impressed there isn't more damage than there is, I smashed through 2 1/2 inches of ice into 3 feet...

    NV3500 from a Chevy into a 2wd Ram

    Like the title states, my buddy has a 91 Chevy Silverado with the NV3500 5speed. He wants to buy his dad's truck which is a 2001 1500 auto 2wd with the 5.2. I know what the procedure is to swap in an NV3500 from another Dodge, but i'm unsure if Chevy used the same bell housing and output spline...

    2001 5.2l pcm

    My old Engine spun a bearing and mangled the crank, so I got a 5.9 to replace the destroyed 5.2. The engine is toast, but the PCM still ran just fine. The truck had a 46re transmission, cruise, A/C, and no tune. It DOES have california emissions with the leak detection pump. If you dont have a...

    My engine is toast, need info on compatible years

    I've had a problem for about a month now that when the engine revs above 4Krpm I loose all oil pressure for a minute. Usually shutting it off and waiting a few minutes works just fine. So I ignored it and said i'd deal with it when the temps got back above 40. Coming home from Midland today the...

    Body lift on 01 2WD

    I've done some searching on here and found some stuff for Doetsch and rough country, they look decent enough, not problems there. But i'm looking for a body lift, I don't really want to change any driveline angles or fight with suspension components right now (I just got an alignment before...

    Bought super cheap air horns for my detroit driving.

    I have a problem just about every man wants. It was bigger than I thought. I bought these Vixen air horns but didn't quite grasp the scale from their picture, now that they are here, well i'm just stumped. I'd like to keep them as they look and sound nice, but I just cant think of a place to...

    Transmission throttle and shift lever

    I dropped the pan to get inside and see what is making my transmission act so stupid. After dropping the pan the front band lever had a good inch of play before it even tried to put pressure on the band. The rear was much better at only 1/4 inch play. I'm amazed the little arm that pushes on the...

    Replacing factory lights with Bi-HID or LED, problem and solution.

    I had this problem myself, and noticed a few threads on here about it as well. It has to do with the way Dodge setup our lighting system. Unlike most every other vehicle manufacturer out there, they decided to use a positive ground setup on the bulbs, so everything is backwards from what any...

    Horn chirp on lock

    I'm stumped at this point, i've tried all that I can think of minus one thing. Last week Wednesday I got home and locked my truck like normal,, it chirped the horn in confirmation. I let it sit till Sunday morning when I went to grab some stuff out of it, only when I hit the lock button, no...

    Reflective or Matte finish?

    I'm tired of the rust spots on my truck, so i'm going to re-paint the whole thing, bumpers included. I'm curious to see what you guys say about going the factory route of keeping it shiny, or if the sports look good with a matte finish. I just took some rustoleum matte black spray paint to...

    What parts are recommended for a 3in lift?

    Hey guys, i'm new to lifting and know very little about it other than what the spacers and block do and how to install them. I'm sure it will mess with at least the camber on the front tires, so i'm looking at an alignment for that, but i'm thinking about a 4 wheel alignment already and my...

    Volumetric efficency

    I'm trying to calculate real time fuel economy. Problem is, we dont have MAF sensors, so in order to calculate fuel economy we have to either put a fuel meter on, or calculate from the MAP sensor. I'm running an effectively stock 318. I know that 100% is difficult to attain on naturally...

    Headlight LED swap Issue -Solved

    About 3 weeks ago I had ordered some LED headlights. I'm running the sport headlights with the Quad bulbs. Since i'm a little hard on cash I only got my headlights at that time and never used my fog lamps as I thought it would look stupid. When I did use my fogs, they were still halogen so I...

    01 1500 sport speaker help

    I know very little of how these trucks audio systems are installed, and the service manual isnt very helpful. It also doesnt help that I have so much crap in my back seat, i'm not sure I even have a rear section of my cab anymore. At some point in my trucks life, a retard replaced my stereo...

    Front Bumper tilted up after accident

    Earlier this winter I was being a little reckless with a buddy of mine sliding around corners and corn fielding in the snow. In my infinite wisdom I decided to take a turn right after my friend before he even cleared it. Since it was possible for something to go wrong, it did. He went sideways...

    Scp tuner and plenum issue

    I've got the death flash ecu, i've got that little sticker saying something stupid about an 01 factory reflash piece of my ecu. One of the techs at the dealer confirmed that I had a 'patched' ecu when I was getting some new key fobs. I'm looking at getting one of the Scp tuners with the 10...
