    clunking from rear end.. U joint and shock replacement

    I just went under again and I didn't notice how worn my sway bar end links were. After looking at them I have a strong feeling that this is the cause. I guess it was easy to think it was coming from the rear but I think this was the cause. I'm going to have someone rock the front end for me to...

    clunking from rear end.. U joint and shock replacement

    I have been hearing a clunking coming from the rear end of my truck for a little while not whenever I go over bumps. Every time I hear it it just makes me cringe haha. I am concerned that it was the U joints or the shocks. They are both oem and I want to replace them. I couldn't find any...

    Difference Between 03-05 and 06-08 2500 Hemi's?

    Its just hard to imagine that they would change the mounts and that the clearance would be different. One company told me it was because of the torsion keys which I am almost positive the 2500 trucks did not have. I live in CT now actually and there is an exhaust shop not too far from me so I...

    Difference Between 03-05 and 06-08 2500 Hemi's?

    Just curious what the difference is between these truck in terms of drive train. JBA and American Racing make long tube headers for the 2500 now but they say they will only fit 06-08 hemi's and not 03-05 hemi's in the 2500 versions What is different about them? Why wont they work? I...

    Building a new hemi for the 2500. Need input

    I was planning on having the shop port and assemble the heads for me. The reason I didn't want to to the bottom end is because I was not sure if I were to bore the block out a little and or machine the crank or possibly putting a stroker kit in, if there were any special clearances or such I...

    Building a new hemi for the 2500. Need input

    Yea I know I don't have egr and it's blocked off. And good to know I was actually wondering how I would "prime" the engine before starting it. How hard was it to assemble to too end? I don't want to mess with the crank and pistons I rather have a shop take care of the and then do the rest myself.

    Building a new hemi for the 2500. Need input

    Its a motor from a 04 just like mine except from a 1500. I believe the only difference is that I dont have an EGR.. And yes I have a diablo trinity on 93 tune. Going to get a hemi fever tune when I am all done

    Building a new hemi for the 2500. Need input

    need help. Computer keeps resetting itself

    I'm going to try and look under and see if I can find any loose wires. Like I said electrical aspects are not my strong point and I am slowly learning. From what I been reading online I agree with you guys and thing it is a ground issue. I am just not sure why it acts up when I try installing my...

    need help. Computer keeps resetting itself

    So today after washing my truck I took a ride over to my buddies house. We were going for a ride and when I went to start my truck all I heard was a click and the lights flashed and then went off.. It did this 3 times and then it started up just fine. My clock reset to 12:00 and so I put it...

    Brakes & lug nuts

    From what it sounds like I think bleeding the breaks is what you need to do. On my mother suburban the breaks were terrible and the pedal felt mushy like you said. I was going to bleed the break for her but my father went and took it to the dealer anyway and got screwed $800 for the breaks. I...

    Touque conveter & VB install cost. Shops in Ct?

    I can understand that for sure. I got a couple buddies who I know will help me and I can imagine how heavy the case and the tranny is. Did you put the truck on stands? My truck sits a little higher than a 1500 but I could imagine if I get some tall 6 ton stands that would help a lot Yep...

    Touque conveter & VB install cost. Shops in Ct?

    I definitely know how to do it myself. The lift would just allow me to do it in much less time than on the ground. I start my new job monday so after that I really wont have a whole lot of time to get it done. But I think your right ill invest in some tall sturdy stand and a good impact...
