    12v access in bed

    You need some heavy-gauge cable for whatever amperage you need, fuse at the battery side. there's plenty of room on the driver's side frame rail to secure it.

    2010 Ram 1500 Alpine Aftermarket Radio Upgrade

    You need a canbus module for sure. Maestro iDatalink retains all of the HVAC/etc features if your radio is compatible. Pac audio and Metra have solutions as well. I have a Metra comverter that replaces the 8.4 "faceplate" and hvac controls with a touchscreen.. and I wouldn't recommend it...

    2014 Ram 5.7 Evap code

    not sure about tuning it out but the issue is possibly simple.. there's a leak detection pump attached to the evap can that is probably faulty. I just changed mine out on a 2016 2500 under similar circumstances. The part is $30 at your favorite parts store.

    6.4 Plug Change Tips???

    +1 to no antisieze. The back two plugs on the driver's side are not too bad to get from up top if you go under the brake reservoir. You'll see what I mean when you get in there.. not quite sure how to put it other than that. I had enough room in the wire harness to skip the step of...

    Yet another oil thread..

    I got it at 90k.. so no clue what was done before me. It does run fine on PUP for sure, I'm just not sure that's the best bang for the buck. I'd like to figure out what that tipping point is. In my reading of others' posts here and elsewhere a healthy dose of moly might be what sets PUP apart...

    Yet another oil thread..

    Sorry.. I've got a 2016 2500, 6.4 hemi, 125k on the clock. All warranties are expired. While on warranty I did what FCA told me to and ran PUP 0W-40. I'm looking for an inexpensive alternative at the moment. The engine has never had hemi tick or any other issues. I also tend to turn MDS...

    Top side oil change.

    If you did plumb something in to the drain plug (say via a fumoto valve) you would have to leave the valve open. I'd be worried about road trash potentially taking out that tubing. Not worth it IMO. With a fumoto valve I can do changes on my truck with no mess and no tools. That's the way to go..

    Anyone ever try to bridge the Alpine sub outputs to mono?

    That wasn't the plan.. my hope is to use what's already there. If I end up having to bring a new amp into the mix I'll use the sub out from what's already available on the aftermarket head unit. Going for $0 here..

    Anyone ever try to bridge the Alpine sub outputs to mono?

    I've got a 2016 2500 CC with the 9-speaker Alpine system. I've also got a Pioneer mono 10" sub that needs a home. Has anyone ever tried to bridge the left/right sub channels together to feed a mono sub?

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Changed the plugs on my 2016 2500 6.4 yesterday. My ribs hurt..

    2019 + Bed Step on 2018 and below?

    I've got an AMP step on my 2016 2500.. never knew if it was factory or not. If thats what you're looking for I'll get you a picture.

    Need help upgrading stereo again thinking Pioneer AVH-W4500NEX

    I just installed one of these.. it absolutely needs a dash kit. You have a few options there - i went a little expensive and installed a metra turbotouch kit, part number 99-6527B. With the right version of firmware that dash kit retains all you need and works well.
