Is there a better coil pack that stock
I suppose you have already tested and discovered the power difference already, however, if you have not based on the comments, the answer is YES! you can draw more power from your hemi through changing out stock ignition coil packs for other ones. The trick is in understanding the coils winding...- Abnsapper

Hemi being discontinuted
I think we may be looking at this all wrong. An all electric motor vehicle system will never come to fruition in the United States. Liberal/socialists have their heads in the clouds and lack any semblance of common sense. I'm not trying to start an argument, nor slight anyone's opinion. Simply...- Abnsapper

AlfaOBD
Hey guys. This may be a little late, so I suppose it is for future reference. I have been using VeePeak OBD II Bluetooth adapter with Alphaobd for several years now and I have not been let down yet. I bought it off of Amazon and I believe I paid a whopping $14 for it. Not a thing wrong with it...- Abnsapper

I found a way to receive your own PIN CODE without the dealer :)
Not that it is a big problem, but... went to my dealership to get my pin#. They will give it to me, however, I need to provide them a serial # and part # of the RF hub in order for them to give it to me. Advised that I was not installing a new one, and again was told that they would not give me...- Abnsapper

8.4” RA4 Upgrade Issues
Hey, maybe someone can give me better instructions, but I have tried to get the Chrysler Pin Puller app to work. I can download it onto my phone, but when I try to purchase tokens so I can have enough tokens to pull my pin number the app will not respond to touch regarding the amount of tokens...- Abnsapper

Did bad shocks make these tires bald?
Yep! I would agree with general analysis. Bad shocks would not wear out the center like that, and what are the chances that both shocks would go bad t the same time. It looks to be over inflation of the left and the right was either over inflated or shadowing the left. I would also agree that... -
2018 Ram 1500 UAQ upgrade with a 2018 UAQ Radio
Roger that! So, I have had some time to work through this. Yes, this harness will work for basic connections such as all the minor conveniences. This is due to the same wiring throughout every and each 1500 harness that must have generic wiring to operate and power up. Where the issue becomes...- Abnsapper

2018 Ram 1500 UAQ upgrade with a 2018 UAQ Radio
Got a question for y'all. Have a 2018 Ram express. Replaced the entire dash wire loom with a 2018 ram Laramie and installed a oem amp. Started the truck up and the 8.4 (took from a 2015 ram) will not work. I mean nothing, almost like it has absolutely no power at all. Replaced the Hvac control...- Abnsapper

How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM
Just checked the fuse (20a) in-line fuse. Not blown. I'm thinking it must have something to do with radio compatibility or Hvac control module. The absence of any power to the radio is what has me stumped. Im just wondering if 2018 Rams that were standard with the 8.4s will not accept older...- Abnsapper

How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM
I s it an inline single fuse? If so, not I have not. I appreciate the heads-up. I also thought the same about the wiring. All of the in-cab wiring (for the most part) is the same. The new harness has the leads for the ambient lighting and lead for the center dash speaker and amp connections...- Abnsapper

How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM
I have a quick question. I am stumped! I have a 2018 Ram Express. I changed out the entire dash loom with a 2018 ram Laramie loom and I added an OEM amp from a 2017. I have two problems: The 8.4 radio (from a 2015 ram) has a blank screen (no sound, no color, nothing) The back up camera will not...- Abnsapper

Laramie Interior Handles
Just Finished Laramie door panel install. If you have a 2018 Express, you can tap into the red/white stripe and solid grey wire that lead into the window power switch for door panel LED illumination. Several posts here have indicated different colors than in mine. Front panels are as stated in... -
Reliability and High Mileage Question
Ram and Ford! I have owned 4 Ford F-150s staring in 1987, 98, 2005, 2015. I have owned 5 Dodge Ram 1500s starting in 1990, 2000, 2009, 2012, and 2018. I love both. Yes I have had a lot of trucks, but we have 6 children and have given each one a truck when they were ready to drive. I put 293,000...- Abnsapper

Goodyear SR-A Tire
So instead, we replace them with the tires that concentrate on what is important to us, rather than an all-around tire that is ok at everything but excels at nothing. When my tires wear out on my 2017, I will replace them with something else. When my wife Grand Cherokee needed new tires, I...
