    5.7 cam & lifter install and now misfire runs like crap

    My misfire ended up being the exhaust rocker arm on the passenger side wasn’t tightened down enough. Tighted it down and it’s running like a champ

    5th gen 1500 REAR BUMPER CONVERSION

    What about the tag lights, were they plug and play? I know the new ones are led, my old ones weren’t.

    Buying a chrome 2021 rear bumper that is brand new from an individual this week for 250 dollars. Has cutouts for exhaust and sensors! Looking forward to using this write up to put it on my 2011 ram!

    Another spark plug thread (copper vs iridium)

    Do you have a programmer? Is that how you run without mds? Also, would I need to not run mds in order to run the iridium plugs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’ve been reading the same but I’ve seen where some people with 2011s have run the ngk iridium ix without changing the coils and they said they had no issues. Was hoping to see if others had experience with this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
