Hey y’all, first time poster, but I’ve learned so much reading forums and wanted to share my experience with my latest project. For a little background, about 8 years ago I bought a 2wd 1996 Ram 3500 dually with a 12 valve Cummins, a 47re, and geared at 3.54, at about 180k miles. At 261k miles I...
Well Ive got a 1998 Ram 1500 5.2 2wd 46RE. For the past month, the truck has had a weird shifting issue. On point and at exactly every time, when the truck reaches the 3-4 upshift mark, the rpms jump about 400 or so rpm for a second or 2. If im going uphill, that will sometimes stay like that...
Alrighty strangers, I have a project that is a little off-normal. I have this sorta lofty, overlanding, mixed-surface, madmax, houston-streets-capable, buck-wild build that I have been working on for a while now. I have a 98 2wd ram chassis that I'm using as my platform for bringing my 63'...
I found a thread about this but it didn't get any replies and didn't have the info I needed. I have a 2001 Dodge ram 1500 4x4 with the great steering issue that 2nd gens have. I want to know if steering packages that the 2nd gen 2500/3500 have will work on the 2nd gen 1500's. This is a package i...
I ordered a set of gm mirrors from boost auto, any thoughts on the look. I know pictures don't give the entire look. Especially in the garage. Not sure I'm sold how low the convex sits. (3 1/2in convex mirror top to bottom, 3 inches of convex sit below the window sill) the regular mirror sits...
I'm really trying to find frame dimensions for all of the different wheelbases/models of these 2nd gens. In early catalogues it talks about the half tons having shorter frame rails than the hd's, but I'm pretty sure the later quad cabs had identical frames( - suspension hangers) to 3/4 tons. My...
Hello. I’ve got a 1998 Ram 1500 5.2L. My gas vent hose (the smaller line coming off the filler neck) has a hole in it. Would anyone happen to know the size of this hose, like the inside diameter?
I have a 1995 ram 1500 looking for a tail light trim cover. Just bought this truck yesterday and wanting to make her look nice again. If someone could direct me towards somewhere where I can find these it'd be great.
Hey Ram lovers!
I have a problem, every time I press the gas all the vents shut.
I know they are controlled by vacuum. so my question is, what could be releasing the vacuum?
I have a 2000 ram 1500 with a 5.9v8, it was an auto, swapped it to a manual.
Thanks!
I'm posting on here to see if y'all can help me. I'm trying to find the best venue for listing some @nd Gen dana axles that I have that I need to liquidate at a low price. I had them posted on craigslist but no takers. Any ideas of better sites to post to sell these axles?
Thanks,
Leon
You will notice that the spot for the rollover valve is sealed off. I do not yet have the old assembly accessible to see if there is a rollover valve on the old assembly, but is this normal? I ran my VIN thru a mopar parts department at a dealership, and found this part number and bought it on...
I have tried to dig around for weeks now trying to find an exact answer, but I cannot find a definite answer. I have a 1998 Ram 1500 2WD and as many of you probably know on here, that the hub on these trucks stick out rather far, I am trying to find new wheels (currently running American Racing...
Hey guys Doing a bit of figuring out here and I hope I’m in the right place. I have a 98 ram with slightly modified 318. Behind that 318 I have a nv4500 I swapped in last year. It originally had the nv3500. Anyway I would like to be able to use 5th gear a little better. My problem is that it...
I’m hoping someone on here can help guide me, I just inherited my grandpas 2001 Ram 1500 5.2 reg cab 2wd. I want to lower it. No kits are made for this truck and I was told this from a rep at belltech “
The 2000-2001 dodge 1500 is a truck that has a smudge pudge of new and old style parts so...
Hey guys! I’m getting tired of my stock mirrors shaking in my 98 Dodge Ram so I think it’s time to upgrade. I was thinking about getting a set of 4th gen mirrors but I’m not a big fan of tow mirrors. Does anyone know if the 4th gen 1500 non tow mirrors will bolt up to my 98? I’m not worried...
Hey all. 98 ram 1500 4x4 here. I am currently very broke. But also in desperate need for some new ball joints and wheel bearings.
So I got the extra money together to buy 2 new wheel hub assemblies and upper/Lower ball joints. But I'm too broke to rent the press at the moment. I probably won't...
My father has a 96 that's been down for awhile. He LKQd a 95 motor and swapped it in. Everything was good, but all in all it won't fire. The only code that comes up when you do the turn key check is CPS sensor. We've replaced it 3 times and changed out the PCM and still no luck. Any ideas or...
Hey all. Looking to manual swap my 98 1500 5.2 magnum. I found a NV3500 cheap from a 02 dakota. I believe it has a 3.9.
I'm wondering what all I'm going to need for this swap. Its coming with a new clutch. I was thinking About replacing the seals. And I believe I have to replace the output...

Hey guys I've got a question about my edge juice with attitude on the ole 2nd gen grandpa truck. I go into the menu and there are two different transmission temp readings, TFT (trans fluid temp) and JTFT (juice trans fluid temp) the JTFT generally reads about 30 degrees cooler than the TFT which...
Hi I'm new to the forum. I know that a LOT of people have already posted threads on leveling their trucks over and over again. I apologize if I am being redundant.
For reference, I've got a 2000 2500 v10 5spd manual on stock suspension with 35s. I bought supercoils...
I have a 2000 dodge 2500. I just have regular powered mirrors. I'm looking into putting some tow mirrors on and just have a few questions.
1st: how capatable are tow mirrors across the generations? I saw a video of a dude who put 4th gen mirrors on his 2nd gen, and it seemed to go smoothly and...
I have pounded the interwebs trying to find out where this relay is located and found a bunch of places selling replacements but no diagrams or locations. If it's in either the engine compartment or interior fuse/relay box, it isn't labeled as such. Can anyone, please, for the love of my sanity...
Hi, I'm new to the forum, this is my first post. I poked around a little bit but couldn't find any news about tailgate assist for our generation of Ram Truck. Three years ago I had my nephews stay over and of course my truck is a big attraction to them. The youngest was climbing around on the...
