RAM CARES and DRAG LINK RECALL !
Yep - Discount Tire and NTB around here are on to this game. They basically see a late mode RAM 2500 and say sorry, we won't touch it (from an alignment perspective) if it has been welded. If you have an alignment package, you are SOL. They could still align the vehicle, but don't want to...- 762-MM

Plugs for using accessory switches in 3500.
OP - it sounds like you are asking about the ‘1/4 Blade Terminal with Seal’ wire. As you pointed out, the upfitter wire kit does/should come with the installed Aux Switch option. This wire kit that did not pass to you comes with several wires for upfitter/PTO options. If all you need is the...- 762-MM

Dorman 265-870 2016 Trans Pan With Drain Plug.
I agree - the surface area of the pan is difficult to clean. It has multiple grooves in the perimeter of the pan along the mounting surface. You have to 'get in' those grooves to scoop out the RTV that remains. Merely running a flat scraper along the surface leaves a lot of old RTV. I went...- 762-MM

Dorman 265-870 2016 Trans Pan With Drain Plug.
Read the same comments, but nothing specific to the Felpro from what I recall. Just giving it a shot (at least draining will be easy if it leaks!). Also, the Felpro is made from nitrile material, so thought it might be better than some of the cork-type pan gaskets out there. I'll report here...- 762-MM

Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT
2014 Ram 2500 - 6.4L Megacab. I ran my Firestones to 58,266 miles. They did alright for me keeping them between 65/80 or 60/75psi. Switched to the AT3 XLT and now have a few thousand miles. I really like them so far and the price seemed to below average. No snow where I am, buts lots of...- 762-MM

Dorman 265-870 2016 Trans Pan With Drain Plug.
Just did this a couple weeks ago on my 2014 6.4L @ 62k miles. I decided to try out the Dorman pan (265-870). It seems to be of good quality and pretty close to the OEM pan as far as feel, weight, fit, etc. Here are a couple pics: Also, I am trying out the Fel-pro trans pan gasket...- 762-MM

ROLL-UP INFO: FOTA 18.11.x & uC D/L 18.45.01 SW Update 13-17 RA3/Vp3-NA & Ra4 VP4-NA
I wonder if there there will be a variant for MY 14 trucks that have the two cameras in (Cargo and Back-Up) in different locations? I'm still on 17.11.37.- 762-MM

Drag Link Recall ... Video
Here is my steering wheel corresponding to the pics a couple posts above. Headed to the dealer to see if they can look at it and get V06 done, along with V44 and U53. Maybe I'm expecting miracles, but I have a feeling it'll be "2-3 weeks" before they can see me. On a positive note, my order...- 762-MM

Drag Link Recall ... Video
2014 with 59535 Miles. I check the drag link at least every 8000 miles/oil change. Guess I’ll tighten it back up and consider V06 tack welds. My steering wheel rapidly became off center tonight. Checked drag link adjuster jam nuts and this:- 762-MM

Delmonico Red for 2018 2500 Sport - Not available
Just checing if there was an update on this paint color. A buddy has been waiting for about 6 weeks and the color was still on restriction as of last week. A RAM regional manager said it might be available this week, but that source has been unreliable. No need to point me to inventory... -

Uconnect 17.11.17 & RAMs with Cargo & Rear Cameras in Separate Displays
Hi Yardsale - thanks for posting. Would you mind clarifying what your issue(s) were and what you did to did to resolve those issues? There are so many variants to this thread that specific issues seem sometimes get generalized. For me, my system Over-The-Air updated to SW version 17.11.17...- 762-MM
