    Cam/Lifter Swap Lessons Learned

    So i literally got the tick about two blocks from my house and shut the truck off and coasted/had it towed the rest of the way home. I have a greene racing custom cam and I am hoping I can get away with just new lifters. Ram rough right before I shut it off but no misfire codes at all. Can I...

    2022 Power Wagon 8-speed Tranny not warming up?

    I have the 8HP70 swapped into my 09' and it never gets above 150F even after driving it for like 3 hours. I have an inline Thermostat to put in it, but have not done so yet. I hear these things like to run between 165-185 to shift perfect and run smooth. I can say that when cold Mine shifts like...

    OIL FILTER RELOCATION

    Does mounting the filter vertical vs. horizontal make any difference? Seems Horizontal would be much easier to catch the oil as it comes out.

    Knight Rider LED strip

    I have the 3 LEDs in my hood that I am wiring to come on when I use my sound effects I wired up. Only use at car shows and such and the LEDS are white. This would be cool though. Does it chase back and fourth when on as well?

    Adding Rear HVAC Vents

    You could add in an extra blower motor under the center console to force the air out :) DIY job for sure.

    37's and 3.92

    Now that I have the 8hp70 swap the 4.56 gears are a bit high :). If I slowly accelerate from 0-45 I can go through the first 4 gears supper quick. My 4.56's I believe are starting to whine at about 50-60mph, so I need to get them checked out. 4.56's are not an OEM cut so I know they are a bit...

    8 speed swap

    Hey guys I completed this swap in my 09’ ram and love it. My only 2 issues now are: 1. Installing the in line oil thermostat from improved racing. Can I jut clamp off the lines, cut and install? Never put one in. 2. My remote start does not work. Russell said I need to make sure the TCM has...

    Rear air ducts

    I know this post is old but looking to do the same in my 09. Any final write up on if this worked and if the #4 part was needed?

    Adding Rear HVAC Vents

    I think if you find these 2 pieces don't you just tie into the vent under the radio and it goes straight back?

    Light bar and reverse light install.

    So what Wire did you end up hooking up the switches so the one LED only comes on with Lights on? I am getting ready to install my switch Panel tonight for all my fun lights :)

    Horn randomly keeps honking??

    My 09 just started this as well. It does the double beep like the remote start is trying to be activated. It does it daily but only once or twice during the day then stops. Can I use AlfaOBD to reset anything?

    Front Camera Install on 2019 1500 Classic

    I am going to add 3 cameras to my 09 But I am getting the Wilco Spare tire carrier so I cant do the tailgate handle camera as it will cover it up. I am thinking aftermarket license plate mount off to one side of the plate or at least just past the spare tire, then the 2500 LED CHMSL Lamp, then...

    6.4 intake manifold swap

    Got the map sensor figured out. The P2017 went away but came back again now. I need to do some wire testing and I might just hardwire in the Extension Harness I got to eliminate connectors. My SRV motor was bad and stuck this time as well so I swapped that out. Attached the pinout for the SRV...

    Remote start switched power wire location?

    Can you not find a. Unused fuse location in the TIPM and wire it there. Then use AlfaOBD to turn that feature on with engine run?

    8 speed swap

    Yeah my cooler now is built into the AC condenser. I am going to have my lines cut and flared then add lines back to the trans. Hopefully I don't have too cold issues. Don't ever drive the truck crazy when its cold and I'm in California so it never gets "really" cold. :)
