Next time you have the coolant drained and are bored it looks like you could trim the hose (on the plastic connector side - left side of pic) about a 1/2" and reclamp, which should pull it away from the filter.
You need something like this to make nice cuts on heater hoses.There's other makes and similiar styles of hose cutters,but this is the one i have,and know,lol

DO NOT USE FRAM FILTERS!! I experienced a defective filter from FRAM. I have been a mechanic from age 14 to present (63). Worked on NYC Taxi Cabs and a Ford Mechanic. In my lifetime working on cars I never experienced a Filter Failure. I notified FRAM and they sent me a new filter and I sent them the defective filter. Lucky for me I caught it before there was a catastrophic engine failure. I had did an oil filter change and took the car out with my wife. I smelled oil. Put it back on the lift and noticed the filter was leaking. It was tight. I had extra filters for the car in my shop and changed it out. FRAM never got back to me. And I never bought another FRAM filter. Now I buy WIX for my other cars and ROYAL PURPLE extra large for the HEMI truck.
And for MOPARS are far superior to anything out there. Well worth the extra money. I use WIX in my other cars. Not my HEMI
I have a lift and I am scared to put my 21 Ram 1500 on it
I did an oil change the old fashion way; jack and stands A kid at the dealer told me they had a 22 RAM fall off the lift.
what exactly are you scared of? not enough lift capacity? not enough operating experience?I have a lift and I am scared to put my 21 Ram 1500 on it
Don’t let some kid at a dealership scare you away from using a lift. No way in hell I would not be using a lift because a kid at a dealership said they had one come off. Either it was broke or not rated for the weight or someone didn’t know what they were doing. Yes it can happen but you just have to make sure you lift in the right spots and make sure the lift is secure enough to lift the weight of the truck.I have a lift and I am scared to put my 21 Ram 1500 on it
I have skid plates and I can’t get the pad on the frame in the rear. Front is no problem. The lift is a 25 year old Snap On lift 11k capacity.
far better than any new Chinese garbage lift thats for sure
I am too big lolIf you cant get under you truck do do an oil change without a jack, its not high enough.
I would think you could easily build a lift pad that would bolt into the same holes the skid plate bolts to. I can't see not being able to come up with something with a little bit of looking at the problem and some fabricating
If you cant get under you truck do do an oil change without a jack, its not high enough.
