    09 ram instrument cluster/radio/wipers/headlights

    Hello, I've got an issue that developed just within the past week. Last Monday I drove the truck and 1 time the instrument cluster beeped and damn near all of the lights came on including all of the prndl lights to come on as well as the tach and spedo dropping off and with the info center...

    Valve seals wont stay seated.

    When I took my heads to the machine shop when my cam went they suggested to "pin" the valve seats cause the chrysler motors have some issues, the hemi's don't have as big as a problem as the pentastar they said but still happens from time to time on the hemis. I told them to go ahead, may as...

    2009 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT 5.7l 4x4 Crew Cab

    I feel like I'm in a sort of dilemma. My 09 seems to be getting a rougher ride*. Wandering on the highway. Yesterday getting blown across the entire highway the hour and a half trip I had. This isn't the first time but it seems like its been wandering quite a bit and front end just seems...

    Exhaust tick

    Sorry, the after market headers were a pain. I didn’t replace them, the previous owner did. I’ve seen and been told the stock header is fairly easy to take off since it’s essentially in a straight line unlike the bbk headers which I have that have ridiculous bends I assume to make them equal...

    Exhaust tick

    From what I've seen, there are direct replacement headers that bolt up to your factory collector pipe (where the exhaust pipe bolts to your manifolds). I have a set of shorties on my 09 that bolts directly up to my factory pipes. Granted, mine are a really huge PITA if you are trying to take...

    2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Trans Service Questions

    I don't experience any drivability problems that I know of. I've had once maybe 8 months ago where I could feel the tranny slip then checked and it was over a quart low, went straight to the auto parts store to get a couple quarts of atf. But yea the fluid is pretty clean from what I remember...

    2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Trans Service Questions

    Yes, that's pretty much the argument I've been making but some I ask swear by not doing it with higher mileage. The trans still acts normal and feels pretty strong so I definitely want to prolong its life as much as possible.

    2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Trans Service Questions

    2009 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7l SLT 4x4 Crew Cab Alrighty, now everyone around me are giving me mixed answers about weather I should or should not service my transmission. I've had the truck since 130k and now has 160k. My step dad owned it before me and rarely drove it, they wanted a Jeep Wrangler so...

    Do you use anti seize or impact drill on your lug nuts

    I have put anti seize on my lug nuts once roughly a year ago. I hadn't taken the tires off in a hot minute and I had one of the wheel hubs go bad, ended up breaking 3 lug nuts in half where there is a large lip and cannot put a socket over them. Had to unbolt the hub with the wheel on and take...

    Has anyone checked the KBB value of their Ram lately?

    I think its slightly accurate at this current point. I've checked other times its been ridiculous.

    For All You Fans Of Oversize Tires

    idk bout you but what I see is it appears to be a 2500 silverado, and I could be wrong but one tell-tale sign is the mirrors, very possible its a 1500. But then again, I don't know how chevy did things in those year ranges but I know Ram 2500 or higher are typically much higher then 1500's. Very...

    New Wheels

    went to the local scratch n wax and whatever soap they use for the wheels etched into the Matte black set of XD wheels i've got. Now waiting for a call back to see weather they decide if they are sending it to a body shop to be repainted or if they are going to cut me a check for new ones. This...

    Need advice on engine performance

    My 09 has the single exhaust with BBK shortie headers that was installed before I got the truck, stock cats and just 1 super 10 before the rear axle with the mufflers and resonators removed. Sounds pretty decent, not super loud but decent noise. Not real deep either. All of that was done before...

    Grinding noise coming from the engine bay when hard accelerating at 5-6k RPM

    I mean it sounds pretty similar to my 09 when I get high into RPM's I don't necessarily hear anything wrong it just sounds like a wide open 5.7l. Maybe i'll see if I can snap a video of mine shortly when I leave work. Yours sounds completely normal to me maybe slightly louder then mine but it...

    Well, looks like I have lost faith in BFG KO2's Anybody ever seen this happen?

    A couple of those marks on the side walls look like someone may had tried to slash them too at one point with a really ****** knife. Again thats just speculation but I've got a set of 35" K02's on my 09 1500, they are definitely worn and probably have 50k miles on them and definitely have seen...
