    Higher capacity oil filter

    XG10575 is the same diameter, but longer filter than the X10060. I use the Fram XG2 on my '15. It is listed for the Challengers that use the 5.7. Larger diameter filter. Some seem to not have room for it on their Rams, though.

    Think I might crash

    When you are doing 80-85-90, and you have to do a quick evasive move, you will end up killing yourself or someone else, hopefully you realize this sooner rather than later. There won't be any time to think about it when you are flipping over 17 times.

    16 Ram 1500 Engine replace or fix cam & lifters

    My "check gas cap" saga - Fixed!

    I believe that even if you reset the CEL, the codes are stored until you have 3 good engine cycles.

    Front Wheel Bearing Removal

    Man, I am glad I live in S. FL and have a 2wd. Three bolts and done. Can't imagine rust belt situations. Got OE hubs from RockAuto for $165 each 2 year ago. $178 now. Part number 68267298AD. Stealership wanted $270 each at that time.

    Who Has The Most Miles On Original Spark Plugs ?
