    Is this a bad bearing?

    Yes, I wire wheeled the slide pins and lubed them. The Power Stop Z36 kit included pads, rotors, SS hardware, etc. Also lubed the back of the pads and the caliper contact points. I'll have to get back in there in the next few weeks and see if a pad is dragging or a piston is binding. If the...

    Is this a bad bearing?

    When I first start out in the morning, after backing the truck out of the driveway, and putting it in Drive, I hear a sound coming from…I think…the driver side front. The sound seems to be associated with the rotation of the wheels at slow speed (<10 mph). After travelling about 100 feet, the...

    Older White Ram 3500 Exterior Detail Question

    Yeah, I'm thinking about going with Meguiar's Ultimate Compound then finishing with their Ultimate Polish. I'll be using a Bosch 18v random orbital sander with the appropriate pads. Any reason to go with a wax instead of the polish?

    2023 Camping Season, what are your plans?

    We moved to northern UT in Sept 2021. Didn't do a whole lot of camping last year. A week near Bryce, a long weekend near Pocatella, and 4 days near the UT/ID border. We plan on doing a lot more camping this year. We sold our newer 1/2-ton and bought an older 1-ton diesel truck. It'll take a...

    Older White Ram 3500 Exterior Detail Question

    I bought a new-to-me ’04 last year that was mechanically babied by its one PO. He kept it in his garage for the most part, which I’m unfortunately unable to do. He kept it clean, but I doubt it has ever been polished or waxed. It has a few minor scratches and a few rust freckles here and there...

    '04.5 3500 "clunk" in back

    I purchased this well cared for 3500 a few months ago and can't figure out the "clunk" I hear from the back when going over bumps. At first I thought maybe it was the topper was loose...nope. Then I made sure the spare tire was secure underneath the bed. It happens a lot more when I'm towing my...

    New to me '04 3500 Laramie

    Bought a one-owner 2004 3500 CTD Laramie CC SB this past weekend with fewer than a 115k miles on it. It's all stock and has been meticulously cared for. He averaged an oil change every 4,200 miles and fuel filter changes about every 7,500 miles with receipts to prove it. All injectors were...

    Fuel Tank Capacity - 3500 short bed

    Sorry, I meant 42 gallon. Math isn’t a strong suit.

    Fuel Tank Capacity - 3500 short bed

    First post here and I don’t own one yet. I’m looking at a Gen 3 shortbed 3500. The Dodge equipment listing sheet for this VIN, under “Standard Equipment” lists a 34 gallon fuel tank. Then under “Optional Equipment”, it lists “8 Additional Gallons of Diesel Fuel”. So does this mean that it has a...
