    How's your electric rack & pinion holding up?

    Yup, that does happen sometimes, should work if it's listed as a replacement number.

    How's your electric rack & pinion holding up?

    It was plug and play, no issues. I've swapped electric Ram racks, Challenger racks, never thrown a code. As long as they have the same part number, there is a tag on the part with a series of numbers followed by two letters, the numbers have to be the same, the letters can be different...

    Adaptive Cruise Control

    I built a Salvage 15 Challenger with adaptive cruise, my parts car didn't have it and the harness on that car didn't even have the plug for the front radar module. I've noticed on the newer dodges they don't include any plugs for things that aren't on the option list, for example the Homelink...

    Those who traded up...worth it?

    Thinking about trading up to a 19 Laramie from my 14 Bighorn. To those who have gone to the new generation, any regrets? Is it that much quieter...does it ride that much better...do you miss your 4th gen...

    Who has seen trans temps this high? 271!

    This sounds like pretty good advice, however I would suspect if it's running that kind of temp and acting up when it does...some damage has probably already been done or at the very least long-term longevity has been compromised.

    Adding a brake controller

    Anyone know if you can install a factory brake controller like you could with the old body style? Did some looking online and I couldn't find anything about it.

    How's your electric rack & pinion holding up?

    Had to replace mine due to excessive slop, the dealer wouldn't even align the front end it was so bad. 2014 1500 with only 70k miles. They wanted around $2,000 for the rack and another $275 to install, plus the alignment, but I found a super low mile 2017 part for less than $500 and installed it...

    Tailgate Removal

    There is also a button of sorts that has to be pressed down, beside the red lock. You'll have to horse it a bit.

    Rust Prevention Help

    I've heard good things about Chassis Saver from a body shop I use, another of many good one step options out there. I plan on pulling the inner fender liners and painting that inner fender lip, front and back, also down along the bottoms of the fenders behind all the wheels to slow down the...

    Tpms...

    If the 16's don't work let me know, picked up a set of wheels off a '17 and the TPMS sensors are not communicating with my '14. Maybe we could swap.

    Installing OEM backup cam

    Mpgrimm2 is the Man!!!! Finally got around to installing the harness he made me in November for my '14 Big Horn 1500, and it was so easy. I was stressing about having to cut, solder, etc., but everything plugged in. The harnesses for the radio and under the truck is what I needed, had the...

    RP EPS Steering Supplier

    I parted a 2wd '14 Big Horn 1500, electric rack was same as my 4wd of same year, remember "made in Tiawan" being stamped on it. Bothered me enough to keep the extra rack for a spare. I can take another look to be sure...

    '15 Ram 1500 2wd Front shock replacement

    Cliff Klavin fact, 2wd shares same front end parts as 4X4 with airbags, same upper, lower control arms, spindle and hubs. If you look at your bearings they will have slotted holes for the CV shaft even. Non-airbag 4X4 use same bearing and upper control arm, different spindel and LCA.

    Around 300 on Craigslist is the going price here. I wouldn't expect much more than that.

    Buy salvage title and rebuild

    I've done burn cars before, this one looks like a pretty easy fix. If everything works, electrical wise, I wouldn't worry about problems down the road too much. If your handy, go for it. I will say, tho, that if any of the intake or air filter stuff has damage there will be water in the oil...

    wheel bearing 2011 1500 5.7 4x4

    The hub was removable on my '14 1500, four bolts in the back of the hub hold it on (13 or 15mm, don't remember). Course, you have to pull the front driveshaft bolt if 4x4, take off brake caliper, rotor too, helps to push driveshaft back to get at bolts, also remove abs sensor (10mm bolt). It...

    Pulling someone out of snow question

    4 low for sure, you can get more than enough speed up and much easier on the truck to use the lower gears. You can do over 30 mph in 4 lo, btw.

    2014 Dodge Ram 1500 shifter stuck in park

    I'd try another shifter switch, they are less than 100 on ebay and take all of 10 minutes to swap out. You don't need to have them programmed either, swap and go, 2wd and 4wd use the same switch but you'd have to re-use the bezel and 4wd buttons if you pick up a 2wd switch. I know, warranty...

    Can you use the tow hooks?

    Take a peek under your bumber, my '14 is bolted to the frame. They look like you could hang the truck from 'em, pretty stout. Course mine is a 1/2 ton, and the video is a bigger truck so maybe they are different.
