    Wheel hub bearing outer race stuck in knuckle

    Take your time with the dremel and you will be just fine. If you cut into the hub by mistake it is not the end of the world. Just clean it up with some emery cloth and install the new bearing. Most of the time when you get close to the hub the bearing will start turning color from the heat...

    Magnum Intake Shootout

    FI Airgaps are (were?) available. Got one for my 5.9 last week of June. Going to install it sometime this fall along with a cam that I have not decided on yet.

    Pcm communication 99 Dodge ram with 5.9

    Just to clear, your truck will start itself automatically? As in the starter will turn the engine over? Just want to understand this part. Unless it is an internal pcm issue, it sounds like a classic bad ground. Might be an easy fix

    2002 Ram 1500 5.9 idle issue. I have replaced the idle air control valve 3 times and the TPS.

    Possible throttle position sensor issue. Wire or terminal issue at IAC connector. I would start running some tests in these two areas

    Hole on side of gas tank

    It won’t be long before you will know who the thief is. When the idiot punctures through the tank and the fuel hits the sparking brushes in the cordless drill, it should cook his head and arms medium rare. Sure bet to make the news

    Hello 3rd Gen Ram Owners, have a vibration problem after I change the u-joints

    Modern day drive shafts should be balanced if you change u joints. The place that I bring mine to will warn you about using aftermarket u joints. It is hit or miss on whether they can balance it or not. They recommend using oem

    Cruise control help please

    I don’t think you have a servo. I believe it is all done by ecm. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

    Crazy Electrical Issues

    Sure sounds like a ground issue. I would obtain a wiring diagram with the ground locations and clean every one.

    2003 Ram 1500 Airbag Light

    Chased down a similar problem in my 03. Found it was a bad connector at the airbag module. What was happening is one terminal in the connector was loose. IOW, it would not stay latched in the plastic connector. When unplugged the terminal would slide back in to its normal position so it passed...

    Truck Bed Replacement

    2003 through 2009. Replaced mine with one that a local salvage yard had from Texas. They had three to choose from. $900, $1200, and $1500. I went with the most expensive one because it was absolutely immaculate! It was the short box also. They seem to be readily available compared to Fords. Good...

    New ECU needed

    I went with Solo in Miami. They seemed to have a decent rating and I have no complaints so far with their service or product.

    Intake replacement on 5.9

    2003 ram 5.9. Overhauled the engine last winter and replaced the heads with aftermarket stock heads. Did the UTAwesome kegger mods including their wedge installed. Very disappointed with the engines top end performance and fuel mileage. Getting around 11-12 highway at best. Needs a lot of pedal...

    Strange cruise control issue

    2003 ram 1500 slt quad cab 5.9 magnum. I have cleaned most of the grounds on the truck. Last week I had the front dashboard covers off and took the time to clean the grounds in there. Do you know where the ground for the cluster is? Your theory makes sense. Thank you!
