    mds lifter missing pins, rod bent

    Bent pushrod is most likely due to mechanical interference. Piston to valve, bent valve, some other clearance issue.

    5.7 Hemi "blew up" by dealership?

    Not sure if it's been discussed but the only way I can imagine an injector causing a connecting rod to break is if the injector dumped liquid fuel into the cylinder causing the engine to hydro lock and bend/break the rod.

    Anybody ever run some tubing from the fill plug up into the engine compartment to make it easier to add the fluid without a pump and without laying on the ground trying to do so?

    Sport bumper conversion in progress questions

    Well I soldiered on and basically cannibalized my old chrome bumper for all the fasteners I've needed so far. I test fit the bumper and the only thing I haven't done is fasten the lower valance below the bumper, I know there's some particular fasteners there including a rivet.

    Sport bumper conversion in progress questions

    Hey all, I'm working on this now, I did follow a very large thread here which is very helpful but I still have some questions. The other thread mentioned that the crash bar only uses one bolt on each side to attach it to the frame. Is there any reason you would not use bolts in the other two...

    Another hood thread, lol.

    Badass looking trucks! Beast, what does water do in the heat extractors? I'm under the impression it just drains into the engine compartment. Other than the scoop area, does it appear to be stock height at the back of the hood? Is the back of the hood completely sealed? Where does water go in...

    Another hood thread, lol.

    So I'm shopping for hoods and keep circling back to VIS SRT, APM ram air, Amerihood SSK or VIP, and lastly a stock Sport hood. The VIS SRT in carbon fiber looks killer but sounds like it's not a good choice for a daily bc it flops around at high speed and its significantly taller but I couldn't...

    Seeking confirmation of sport bumper over chrome bumper 2014

    Prompted by a fender bender I am looking for confirmation that I can install a sport plastic bumper cover over my steel bumper. Did alot of reading and seems pretty well confirmed that this can be done on earlier Rams. Basically you remove the filler panel above the steel bumper and the lower...

    2" Mcgaughnys drop vs CC w/ 32 gal tank

    My 14 CC w/ 32 gal tank has a factory drivers side rear spring which is about 2" taller than the pass side. When installed the truck is level. The Mcgaughny springs are the same size L and R and sure enough when installed the drivers side sits about 2" lower. Anybody else run into this?

    Anyone modded the business card holder to hold a cell phone?

    I received mine and couldn't be happier! Dropped right into the card slot snug as a bug and holds my HTC A9 with a case just fine, I order a medium. It is a well designed and much needed addition to my console. Thanks for making this happen for us Ram owners Wade!

    Anyone modded the business card holder to hold a cell phone?

    Ready to order mine, 13 total reviews, all 5 star except that one idiot. Just fyi the small and large are Prime but not medium, probably due to stock. I will wait for the medium to be Prime eligible. Cant wait though, thanks for making this happen Wadestar.

    Major Problem

    My first thought is that the truck wants you to have your foot on the brake when you shift from reverse to drive regardless of if you were at a complete stop or just nearly stopped but still moving. This is a situation where personal driving habits conflicting with the electronic nanny stuff...

    Move the knob shifter?

    Subscribing. I have never liked the rotary knob on the dash. Family car is a '14 Durango and the knob is in a MUCH better location being on the console. I would actually prefer to have a pistol grip shifter in the console but if I could move the rotary knob that would be an improvement. And...
