    Deployed Airbag Replacement Questions

    Shops always price new dealer parts for that stuff. The only time you see used is when the insurance company tries to control costs. As to being out in the elements, any wrecking yard selling used units has them in a closed building and out of the sun. Reason being is so the steering wheel and...

    Deployed Airbag Replacement Questions

    I would never use a repaired airbag. I have seen horror stories of just covers placed over steer wheel bags and other units that don't really work. Plus, you are dealing with explosive type charges in the air bag units. I don't like dealing with 'repaired' parts for those. The only way to save...

    What shock replaces STOCK with same smooth ride

    I have kyb monomax on my 2500. I replaced the stock poggo sticks this winter and find these to be nice. They control the truck well and are not too stiff that going over speed tables, yes speed tables, is a problem at 25 mph. 2013 2500 6.7 cummins crew cab. white and stock as can be using...

    Deployed Airbag Replacement Questions

    First, it you have full coverage then the insurance should pay for this repair. You need seat covers and many other parts besides the airbags. You will also need some sensors as they are single use items. You may also need the seat belts replaced as they have airbag units in some to add tension...

    No more headlight condensation

    If you look at the picture in this post, the item that looks like a gear at the top between the two yellow circles in the adjuster screw. There is a seal between the housing and the screw and this was my leak. And I no longer have the gray caps, just rubber line that points downward. 2013 2500...

    No more headlight condensation

    The rubber seal sits between the housing and the headlight adjuster screw. It is more like a big rubber washer than a seal but that is ram for you. It is hidden while in the truck so I can't get you a picture, but it was the last item I sealed and it stopped the water. I had about an inch of...

    Trans Tune for Higher Fluid Pressure

    No way to do it with alpha. The max factory pressure is just that. If you have one of the good transmissions you can run more pressure without upgrades. The bad ones dont last regardless of the basic mods since they probably leaked too much new. 2013 2500 6.7 cummins crew cab. white and stock...

    No more headlight condensation

    Had the same issue on one on my 2013 2500. Tried all that stuff, didn't help it. I had even extended the vents using rubber vacuum hose. The cause was the rubber seal on on the top adjuster screw. The rubber washer was leaking into the light. I sealed it with some silicone sealer and all has...

    Modifications needed for aftermarket carbon fiber hood?

    No more hood shocks or springs. That is a key part as they will stress the hood and break it. Remember, with these parts, good means lots of money. Cheap means lots of work to get to fit. 2013 2500 6.7 cummins crew cab. white and stock as can be using Tapatalk

    Synthetic Oil

    Lighter oil will not stop piston slap. The slap is because the piston is slightly too small for the cylinder and the skirt 'slaps' the wall. A good oil can help cushion the piston and reduce the effect. Going lighter will just make it worse and dirty oil just amplifies the sound in the block...
