    Lifter failure preventions?

    The hellcat pump doesn't increase oil pressure, it moves more oil..."volume". Bumping idle speed won't do that, it will only increase pressure slightly which is not the problem.

    Lifter failure preventions?

    Turn the idle speed up, how ridiculous that idea is. That is just a band-aide instead of an actual fix.

    Engine Oil Pressure

    Both those readings, 51 at idle and 77 at 2000 rpm seem high to be realistic unless you have a high pressure oil pump installed.

    Found my RAM! Copper Sport 1500

    Congrats on the new truck, you can never go wrong with a Ram. I am sure you will get a long time of fun use out of it....high mileage is not a bad thing if they looked after it.

    Tire & Wheel Questions

    Yes, those are designed to be the same circumference as the wheels and tires on your Ram as it came from factory. The spares are rarely custom though, usually just a steel wheel. The tires may be a diff size though, but same height.

    Headlight bulb change

    i think because of LED heat sinks getting so hot, it may not be a good idea to total encapsulate them with out some air flow. They do have fans or heat sinks on them usually for a reason. If heat was not a good reason, perhaps the condensation they may cause inside the housing.

    Canadian vs US tuning - is there a difference?

    I would not think there is a difference, the tunes are no doubt generic for most same models I am betting. It would not be cost effective to individualize them all with different tunes. Even tuners you buy are generic unless you have them dyno tested to your personal preference.

    Front End Clicking / Clunking / Grinding

    I suspect cv joint too, the sounds they make are usually a sure sign. Wheel bearings will grind going straight mostly, on that type of bearing anyways.

    Just joined and hoping to learn and maybe help too. I have an older Ram, but still works nice and only driven on better days.
