    Starter replacement- wow

    I’ve had my 2009 5.7 for about 1.5years at this point. Always starts but the starter has been very very slow to crank, especially when heat soaked. I used to do a remote start when leaving the truck for a few minutes to keep the ac going, but it cranks so slow hot I stopped doing that about a...

    Belt squeak - found and fixed

    Different brake bulbs?

    So, I was just looking around at random parts and noticed a listing for the brake light bulbs. Listed as 3157 for the 2 headlight option, and 3057 for the 4 light option. I never would think that the tail light sections were different, but perhaps I missed something. I currently have the 2...

    AlphaOBD options 2009 Ram 1500

    I’ve watched in here for a while and finally joined just recently to post. Ok so I am on the fence on the purchase of alpha. After looking here and many other online forums there is limited, as in like no reference to my model year and what features AlphaOBD supports. I’ve run it in demo to see...
