Finally got around to removing the fully optioned passenger seat and weighing it. Wasn't as heavy as expected weighing in around 60lb.
Check out the full vid for the process and exact weight!
In a bit of debate with myself over whether or not I should continue my build with my 2014 CC 5.7L Sport with the 8speed and 3.92 or get a RCSB. Truck is procharged with bolt ons currently
My fully loaded/optioned truck is heavy at an estimated 5200lbs (by the book) and we recently ran a 12.5s...
Wait I mean....
Now that I've got your attention here are the 1/4 mile runs with the RAM 1500 Crew Cab 5.7L HEMI with the procharger kit and bolt ons.
Truck has the following:
- 113k MILES on the clock
- 8 Speed
- 3.92
- Crew Cab
- 17" stock wheels with stock Goodyear Wrangler tires
-...
Anyone have any info on this or know if the GEN 3 hubs are at all similar?
Was considering an SRT-10 Brake swap which would be pretty cool if it would bolt up!
Anyone every considered or looked into this?
Found a simple solution for the notorious ProCharger belt slip issue and not producing full boost. The carbinite treated supercharger pulley process strips the shiny smooth anodization off the contact area of the belt and then treats it with a "grit" surface that grabs the belt. Lots of other...
Hey everyone, I've made a ton of videos on these trucks already but want to dedicate this thread to the videos specific to the supercharger install on this project truck. I'll be releasing an episode every week covering a different portion of the installation procedure for the Procharger kit...
Just as the title states! This vid shows how to go about making the v6 E-fan harness reach without cutting any wires and gets it mounted in the correct location you want it to be! :D
Pretty simple but took a few minutes to figure out how to get at that pesky bulb! This should save you some time and give you something to do when your bored one day! :D
Quick video shows how to remove the 4th gen tail gate with the factory wiring that leads to the tailgate lock/backup camera and also the spring assist :)
Finally got around to a project I wanted to tackle for awhile. With the procharger soon being installed and JBA shorties on I want to reduce under hood temps and also since the procharger pulls its air from the back of the engine bay this will bring cooler air in for that purpose also.
This is...
Mopar instructions are pretty vague and suggest removing them from the outside but this method shows how to remove the vents from the inside so that you can avoid risking any damage to your paint :)
Wanted to see how the OEM factory exhaust tips look finished in black but also wanted the ability to be able to return the stock tips back to chrome if I wanted.
With Plasti Dip you can always remove it later if so desired so I decided to give it a shot on the exhaust tips.
End result was...
I finally had a chance to edit hours of footage of the JBA Shorty header install for the 4th gen RAM. Overall the job isn't difficult it is just labor intensive and takes a bit more time and finesse getting at the manifold bolts.
Definitely check out this video if you are considering tackling...
Had a spare grille that I stole the honeycomb inserts from so I decided to have some fun and try out one of these grille inserts that require a complete removal of the factory crosshair section and inserts. Definitely gives the truck a different appearance. Still keeping my color matched...
As title states. I have two DiabloSport i2 tuners for sale. Both are unmarried and ready to go! (see attached pictures). Nothing wrong with the units I just happen to have a 2014 with an 8 speed and my truck is one of the unlucky stubborn ones that won't tune the transmission with DiabloSport...
Super simple but also seems to be extremely common on these 4th gens. I've gone crazy lubricating all the hinge points before but there usually only is one culprit for the squeak and its that there is no lubrication on the post that the roller spins on. Save yourself a whole lot of time and...
Found this little hidden gem of info and decided to take a peek. Super simple but this video helps clear up any confusion on the location of the fuse to swap over!
Finally got around to deleting the AGS - Active Grille Shutter system from my truck.
This system is designed to do a few things revolving around fuel efficiency. One of them being bringing the engine temperature up to the factory set operating temperature of about 203* F. If you put a lower...
As title states selling front and rear struts for a 4th GEN. Setup was used on a 2/4 Belltech lowering kit. The Monroe front struts are supposed to give a bit softer ride in the front. Setup has around 12k miles on it
Fronts are Monroe Reflex 911300 struts
Rear are Belltech Street...
I did the long daunting 16 spark plug change on the truck and decided to finally make a good guide for fellow RAM owners to follow to make this job as pleasant as possible.
The use of a cheap $12 magnetic swivel socket makes this job 100x better and a moving a few extra things really make the...
Finally got a chance to weigh my 24" Hellcat Reps compared to 17" factory wheels. I knew they would be lighter but the difference was a staggering 26lbs !
The truck is night and day quicker with the 17s and also slightly smaller diameter resulting in a better effective gear ratio.
The 17s...
