    4th Gen Crew Cab Seats in a 3rd Gen Quad Cab

    This is exactly what I don't want to do. I'm OK getting an aftermarket setup but if I can use factory pads and jimmy them to work it would be better.. plus alpha odb and all the wiring as I am not pre wired :(

    4th Gen Crew Cab Seats in a 3rd Gen Quad Cab

    Can you elaborate on what switches/ecm you purchased to get the seat heaters working? My seats in my 13 foam is packed out. I debated buying stock heated from a newer ram but am uncertain about getting the factory heaters to work even with a generic switch. Canbus and wiring will be a major...

    LOOKING FOR LED HEADLIGHTS AND FOG LIGHTS / WHAT BRAND?

    There was a pair on ebay a while back that mimicked what looked like the nova v.2 from headlight revolution, I got them for ~ $60 USD. They had a much better cut off line than the LED I bought local from kijiji which just sprayed light everywhere - and I mean everywhere. I had to aim the old...

    ram 1500 6 cy vs ecodiesel 6?

    I've been driving my pentastar 3.21 and I haul a camper... I'd suggest getting 3.51 (i think that's the next ratio) so you can tow more than 4200 pounds if you'd ever want to - plus will be better for resale. This thing is gutless on hills, has to shift down before it finds power but overall is...

    p062a - CEL Fuel Pump A control circuit range

    I've been getting this CEL for a while, I've been clearing it daily, doesn't seem to go on in ways that I can replicate it - seems when I'm slow off the start or slowly accelerating the light will come on. No loss of power, accelerates fine, no increase in fuel consumption. I was hauling my...

    Rough AF ... I left mine the past couple times after hauling, rides smoothed out but I also have Hellwig Swaybar which I'm sure attributed to much of the hard slam on divits in the road.

    Just want to chime in here, I bought the boss air suspension kit from Home , the kit that I have differs from what people have received above. I didn't have holes in my kit to put bolts through, I slide my suspension in from the middle and the bolts on the spring side with a washer and lock...

    boss air suspension (load assist)

    It's the same valve as what's on your tires. I use an air compressor at home and have no need to deflate... depending on the lift you could just drive the truck hunting with a jacked up back end ?? :happy107: Or , buy a cheap 12v cig lighter plug in tire filler.. that'll give you enough...

    New Dodge Ram wouldn't shift into gear tonight. Possible Causes?

    Just want to chime in on this, I have the same thing happen, usually seems to be when I'm going from reverse to drive and vice versa, but it blinks and I'll be in neutral. I'll pay attention to ensure I've got my foot on the brake while completing the shift, this is probably what it is. I...

    It was posted on Kijiji, I had to negate pretty hard to get the pricing, at first they said 1400 CAD incl steering wheel , got em to 1100, in the end I paid 915 + 160 for the wheel so .. not doing too bad considering I have the harnesses and bracket for overhead console.
