    Windshield Cowl Replacement

    So the plastic cowl that lines up with the bottom of my windshield is falling apart. I found the OEM part number, 55112305AD, but it's very expensive to replace. I'm getting around $320 just for that part. Anyone know of any aftermarket alternatives or do I have to go OEM? A quick internet...

    Just bought a 9 Drive throttle controller, WOW!

    Installed mine today. I like it so far, no issues. I set it to 2.3, completely eliminates the stupid lag from stock.

    Just bought a 9 Drive throttle controller, WOW!

    Just ordered mine. Will update once installed. I'm excited to get rid of some of this throttle lag.

    What does this mean?

    The gas cap light appears to be common with our trucks, I've had it happen to me twice (2015 w/ 78k mi). There's a fault somewhere within the emissions system. Some of us have had luck replacing some easy/cheap items like the actual gas cap, purge valve, or leak pump. Unfortunately diagnosing...

    Gas Cap Light - Fixed!

    I have about 76k miles. I never top off while fueling up, I agree it's not really worth it. Once the pump clicks, I'm done!

    2018 RAM 1500 shock replacement mileage?

    I replaced my shocks at 60k miles with KYB Excels. My ride noticeably improved. It's easy to do with the Thuren tools. All four shocks were about $150. I replaced mine since I noticed my ride was choppy and a bit rough. The new shocks have fixed this.

    Gas Cap Light - Fixed!

    So I've had the check gas cap light on for about a month now along with some emissions related engine codes. I checked all my hoses and lines and I didn't see any visual signs of a crack or hole in the system. I had previously had an evap leak engine code thrown about 30k miles ago, so this is...

    AEM Dryflow vs OEM Filter Fuel Economy

    Very cool! I have the same filter, didn't really noticed much in regards to fuel economy. By far the best benefit is that it's reusable. It also appears to do a good job filtering. I've done multiple oil analysis while using that filter and the oil doesn't show excessive signs of contamination.

    Oil Filter Thread

    I have used the boss filter before, no issues. I change oil and filter around 5-7k miles. I still prefer Wix....I've done multiple UOAs with Wix filters across multiple vehicles and have not seen issues with them.

    Cyl 1 Engine Misfire

    230k miles isn't a bad run at all. I wouldn't fix the issue with that many miles but go with a used engine if you're going to drop it in yourself. You could also put a rebuilt unit in there, but I haven't really heard much on those.

    ZF8 - PPE Pan Install and D6 Changeout to Maxlife

    I used 6 ton jacks without issue. I also parked on a slight decline with the front facing the declining slope (backed in), which helped.

    2018 8spd wet trans pan?

    Looks like you're still within your warranty period. I would let them figure it out

    8spd fluid change now have a noise

    I followed these directions when I did my change. The trans ended up taking about 1/2 quart more fluid after running thru the gears.
