    Front End Issues - 2018 2500 6.4L gasser

    Where did you pry? Between the mounts and the sway bar? I was under it yesterday and couldn't find anything loose at all, but I didn't pry on the sway bar.

    Front End Issues - 2018 2500 6.4L gasser

    No, it's more felt than noisy. I don't think it could be recorded. I'm going to try and jack it up tomorrow and see if I can find anything loose. It's just me, so no one around to help. When I turn the wheels lock to lock, sitting still, the steering wheel feels like it's fighting back when...

    Front End Issues - 2018 2500 6.4L gasser

    Well, that was very helpful, Jerry. I'm not a mechanic and it's still under warranty. I had who SHOULD have been the most qualified people looking at it. Since they didn't admit to finding anything, I was seeking some alternative suggestions as to what the problem might be from a large group...

    Front End Issues - 2018 2500 6.4L gasser

    I've thought about that, but I was concerned about mileage. I'm already only getting 10 MPG around town. Will it have much effect?

    I can get the front end down a couple of inches if I really lean into it. It comes up, down, up, back to resting. I don't know if that's enough to say the shocks are weak or not... this is new to me.

    Actually, that was the first thing I checked... It seemed like something a loose wheel would cause. Thanks!

    The alignment shop said the front end was in good shape as far as tie rods, ball joints, etc. They didn't mention any play in the bearings, so I don't know about that. The rear drive line is not a concern, just a confirmation to me that he did some off roading in it. The RAM dealer was pretty...

    Front End Issues - 2018 2500 6.4L gasser

    This is my first 2500. I've had 3 1500's including an Ecodiesel over the past 10 years. I bought it used with 8200 miles on it. The first thing I did was replace the Firestone AT's with Michelin Defender LTX tires. About 1000 miles later, the front end feels loose and rattles going over any...

    Leer 700 Tonneau cover

    It's 22" tall to the top of the handles, and the handles are about 15" apart at the top. The outer handles about 1" taller than the bar between them, if that makes sense. I can put the generator anywhere in the bed, so if it would fit on one side or the other of the rib, that will work. Or if...

    Leer 700 Tonneau cover

    Hi, Jay, I keep a generator in the bed of my 2018 2500 all summer for camping. As it is right now, the generator is 22" tall - 2" taller than the bed rails. Does the Leer 700 have 2+" of arch in it so that I could leave the generator in and still close the cover? I can't seem to get a...
