    Sold my Ram..

    Well guys, my Ram is officially sold... Just signed it over about an hour ago. In some sense, I'm gonna be sad about it and miss it since I've had it for over three years and put so much work into it, but now it's going to make another guy pretty happy too. Sold it to a buddy here in town so...

    Rear End Vibration

    Ever since I replaced the rear axle back in September with the 3.92 gears, I have had a vibration in the rear end. It also has a deep howling sound to it when it slows down to come to a stop. I thought it might have been the rear drums just needing turned. Had that done, but still didn't fix the...

    Muffler weld on

    What is the typical cost a shop charges to weld on a muffler and run some pipe back to dump over the rear axle? Going to get it done tomorrow and I got quoted $50. Pretty fair I think, don't ya'll?

    DiabloSport Trinity

    Been really looking at programmers and tuners lately and I'm really sold on the DiabloSport. It has perfect customized tunes and an awesome digital display monitor. Was wondering if anyone had one laying around that they need to get rid of? It is for my dad's 2006 Ram 2500 with the 5.9 Cummins...

    Might be a dumb question...

    While cleaning up my wheels and tires with the rotors and brakes still hot, they started smoking when I sprayed water on them. Now I know that might lead to warped rotors, so I tried to avoid spraying them after that. What got me to thinking though is, we all wash our trucks at car washes...

    Is this a good deal?

    I got the guy talked down to $1200 right now... My thinking is if we get it, I could swap the bumper and grille onto mine and then turn around and sell it and make a little bit of money off of it... I know it says the transmission needs replaced, but I can find one for $300 on Craigslist...

    Just my thoughts...

    Just gonna think out loud for a minute... Yes I know my truck is not considered in racing terms as "fast", but it will run with most of the other trucks and alot of cars. For what it is, I'm happy with it. Before I started any kind of performace mods, the 0-60 was seriously around 13.5...

    Cutting the cat

    New gears!

    Finally got the axle installed on my truck! Took 3 days but we got it done! I now officially am riding with 3.92's :pedobear: I took it for a test drive earlier and it is amazing the difference!! It was a workout before getting it to 3000 rpm, now it's doing it in 1st gear lightly hitting...

    Ummm...

    Can someone tell me what this is? I'm guessing it's the magnet that sits inside the differential housing, but look closer... It's bent up. The gears seem to look good though, no missing teeth or anything. Thoughts?

    Tire question

    The tires on my dad's truck are 285/65/R18. I found a tire on eBay for a good price... but it's 265/60/R18. Is there a huge difference in the size to where it'd be noticable looking at it and driving? Also found a 255/55/R18 for even cheaper, would it work?

    Rear Axle Swap DIY??

    I've looked all over the internet and haven't been able to find a DIY on swapping rear axles on my truck... Does anyone know of one on here or some other forum? I'm pretty sure I know what to do, I just want to have something to go off though when we do it.

    3815 update compatibility

    I have the 3815 and updated it awhile back so it has the data logging app. Well I plugged it in to the truck and it won't work... Is it because I have an older truck? The sticker on it does say 03-07 Hemi, but it still tunes my truck fine.

    Bedrug DIY

    I installed a "custom" bed rug in my truck and it is awesome! It's really simple to do, so heres how... First, go to Lowes and get a few rolls of indoor/outdoor carpet. It is cut in 6'x8' pieces, so it took me three rolls to do the entire inside of mine, including the underside of the tonneau...

    Just thought I should let you all know, my truck has totally changed its appearence. Me and my dad spent two months sanding it down and shooting the paint. It has Metallic Mineral Gray and I couldn't be more happy with it! But trust me... There are still some big plans ahead :cool:

    Power Mirrors

    I got some power mirrors, but that's it... no switch or wiring harness. So what I was wondering is where I could get those and where the wiring needs ran to make it work. There is no wiring for it from the factory.

    Im looking into getting a hard top fiberglass tonneau cover... I found one on CL but its for an 03 is what the guy thinks anyway. I know the general fittment is 94-01 but not sure if tonneau covers are an exception... which is what Im hoping. Would a cover off an 03 fit my 01? If so, where...
