    Oil Filter Thread

    Then my Ford would take the same filter as my Ram. Ooh...I hadn't ever thought of this. Putting this onto 'next parts order' from dealer list. Thanks!

    5th Gen Seats into a 4th Gen?

    This is the PWM controller I bought, FWIW. There are many on ebay that appear to be similar...but I can state this one works. :) https://www.ebay.com/itm/113381467085

    Radio interference stops when brake depressed.

    My wife says...that's all I'm good for. Oh, that and shoveling the driveway.

    Radio interference stops when brake depressed.

    Perhaps I bond my grounds? Or do I ground my bonds? Crap. Thats another argument. Maybe we can discuss what oil is best? Crap, that won't be better. I got it. Which tire is best?

    Interior squeak ***update*** fixed

    You can try polyethylene tape as well to put between two parts that are squeaking. I used some of this at various locations in the cab. it works well. https://www.amazon.com/WOD-Polyethylene-Transparent-Tape-Aggressive/dp/B07JF1RDWN

    Radio interference stops when brake depressed.

    Well, I also have a 2012 Ram. Guess what...I have the same thing. It only seems to come through the front passenger door speaker. I thought it was the aftermarket radio, amp, etc - wasn't. After getting super duper shielded cables, moving them, different amp, etc, it is still there. I...

    Blackstone - used oil analysis

    There are a few posts after this one (linked below) that have the analysis. It was the Castrol Edge; and the PUP is doing better than the Castrol (but the wear was fine with Castrol as well). FWIW - It was at 110k miles I switched to PUP from Castrol; I think I implied it was 100k earlier. My...

    AC shuts off when idling in traffic

    I'll bet you that the active aero grill shutters are stuck closed. If you were to physcially remove them, I'd bet your temps drop dramatically.

    Blackstone - used oil analysis

    I've been running M1 0w20 and M1 filters for the first 75k miles; switched to castrol 5w30 + MOS2 with SRT filters for about the next 25k miles, and running PUP 5w30 + MOS2 with Royal Pruple filters for about the last 30k miles. Somewhere in this thread about 3 (?) years ago...Burla compared...

    Blackstone - used oil analysis

    Another from my Ram 1500 w/ 5.7. I forgot to do one last oil change - so the last comparables are from roughly a year ago.

    BW 44-44 to BW 44-45 Swap

    Do you have the security bypass cable for the 2018+ trucks? I think it was 2018 when that was implemented on the Ram.

    5th Gen Seats into a 4th Gen?

    I assume the same HSM is in the '13+ trucks as was the '09-'12 trucks.... I added pictures to my prior post. Basically, the outputs of the 4th gen HSM are ~+10vdc (low) and ~+12vdc (high). Take those outputs to the input of a PWM controller. On the 5th gen fans, cut the wire to the fan...

    5th Gen Seats into a 4th Gen?

    So, I got the cooled seats working. I used a PWM controller to make it work. The output from the 4th gen HSM goes to the PWM controller, and the output of the PWM controller goes to the 5th gen fans. I had to wire the fans directly to the PWM controller - since in the 5th gen, the fans have...

    AC shuts off when idling in traffic

    Does your truck have the aero grille? The one with the flaps that close at highway speeds? If so, any chance they are 'stuck' closed? If your efan is working, that's the next thing I'd check.
