    Top-End rebuild, new cam, lifters, gaskets 2011 Ram 1500 crank no start

    Transmission Compatibility

    Does the transmission need to come from a 4x4 or same rear diff?

    Transmission Compatibility

    What years of the ZF8HP70 are all compatible for a direct swap with a 2014 4x4 3.92 GR? I am thinking about getting a low miles used one to drop in in the next year or two. I think my TQ converter is starting to go and an OEM one is almost as much as what I can find for a used transmission...

    Ram 1500 acceleration issues

    This sounds like just a torque converter and/or fluid problem, not necessarily a bad transmission. Any additional info since your last post?

    Fuel Milage Drop

    Also if you have a scanner check for some codes. When my lifter failed fuel mileage dropped to about 14-15 over my normal 18-20.

    High idle after cam swap

    how does it behave other than idling? Does it rev okay? Sound normal? When my timing was off on my rebuild, the engine sounded like a diesel. I would also verify the phaser was locked out properly. If you DEFINITELY installed pushrods correctly, AND timed it CORRECTLY, most plausible...

    2013 5.7 2x4 238,000miles p0303 on Hard Acceleration

    Pop the hood. Swap cylinder 3 and 1 coil packs. If misfire stays on cylinder 3 then swap cylinder 1 and 3 injectors. If #3 misfire persists, its gonna be cam and lifters. If the truck was not beat by your father in law, it's almost certainly worth rebuilding the top end. If it was used to...
