    Anyone swapped wheel studs on their 2500?

    So my 2015 Ram 2500 4x4 Tradesman was in the shop for a loud clanking sound and vibration. It started on my drive to work Friday. I jumped out, did a walk around and couldn't see anything wrong. I shook the tires a bit, but everything seemed tight. I thought, "crap, please don't be gears or...

    Tradesman Transfer Case Shift Linkage?

    I posted this in the Engine / Performance section, but not responses after 79 views, so I'll drop this in the HD section since it pertains to a 2500. My cousin has a 2010 2500 4x4 - Tradesman. It's been raining here lately (surprisingly heavy in S. TX). He was messing around on his property...

    Transfer case shift linkage?

    My cousin has a 2010 2500 4x4. It's been raining here lately (surprisingly heavy in S. TX). He was messing around on his property and he went to shift into 4hi and his shifter went..."limp?" Turns out, one of the rubber grommets that holds the linkage to the shifter arms fell out. Luckily the...

    Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearl & fender flares

    So, I'm looking to get fender flares. But, I can't decide between painted or black flares. I think the standard pocket type flares that cover 1.75 - 2.00 will work fine. I'm covering 37x12.50s on 20x10 -0- offset wheels. Anyone out there with DCRCP paint and fender flares that can...

    37x12.50s + Procal = Surprised by mileage

    I'd been rolling 295/65r20s Nitto Trail Grapplers for about a year. According to Nitto's website they are almost half an inch taller than their 35x12.50s. The evic told me I was averaging about 11.7 - 12.0 mpg. Hand calc I was averaging about 11.5 mpg. At the time I had no correction for...

    37x11.50r20 Nitto Trail Grapplers

    Anyone running these? According to Nitto's website, they are load range E & 3970 #s @ 80 psi. I'm not too worried about towing, but how about loads. Do the tires bulge a lot? I haven't noticed my 295/65s bulging much at all with only 50 psi when I have a little over 1000# in the bed...

    Yet another GEAR swap info request thread

    So I'm seriously looking at swapping gears this winter. I have a '15 CC short box 4x4 with the 6.4 and 3.73 gears. I'm rolling 295/65r20 Nitto Trail Grapplers. I've seen a few posts here & there about swapping to 4.56s, but wondering if anyone that has moved up to 4.56s, runs a similar set up...

    Mpg w/ 6.4 - 35s - and 4x4?

    I see a lot of mpg posting of 15-17 mpg with the 2500 4x4. So, I'm wondering if most of those posts are with stock tires. I know I'm hovering at 11.5 mpg (evic) with 295/65r20s - so pretty much a 35" tire and a 3/1 lift. I get up to 12.5 mpg (again evic) when on long hwy trips. What's...

    Next set of tires for my 4" lift?

    Just thinking out loud about my next set of tires. I'm running the 1500 Express Black Truck edition. It has 20x8 alloys with 5.2" backspacing. No spacers right now and I run 295/60 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I like the tires, so I'll probably be sticking with them or the Toyo AT2s. My dilemma...

    Primus IQ Brake Controller Trouble

    So I just installed the Primus IQ brake controller. It's pretty straight forward. But I noticed when parked it rests at 3.6. Then as I drive it goes up to 8.4 - 8.6. When squeeze the manual override it jumps to 12. When I brake, it goes down to 2.4-2.6 then back up to 3.6 when fully stopped...

    Bilsteins 5100 at 2.8 pics please

    Ok, so I keep trying to search for pics of trucks with bilsteins set at 2.8" and find a thread here & there with maybe 1 pic. Mostly the search just give me threads of people asking advice or talking about putting them on. How about a thread just for 1500 4WDs on bilsteins set at 2.8"...

    Different lift question 4" + lifts

    Okay, we all know how the front is lifted when going 4" or more - control arm & diff drop brackets and knuckles. But the rear seems to be just springs or spacers. So my question is, how is the rear suspension geometry addressed? I've looked over the parts list for BDS, Zone, and RCX and...

    Possible to run 37s with 4" RCX + Bilsteins at 2.1"

    I read on the "other" forum that a guy was running 37x12.50s on 4" lift + Bilsteins maxed at 2.8". I was wondering if anyone on here was running a similar setup? I've seen posted pics of 6" lifts with 37s, so on paper it looks doable with 4" lift + 2.1" bilsteins and 3" or 5" springs in the...

    addictive desert designs rear bumper???

    Anyone have any experience with their rear bumper? It looks pretty good, but the pics they are don't show it straight on from the back. Also, not the best lighting. Anyone out there have pics of it on your truck? I'm interested on how it looks straight on, profile, and how much it sticks...

    I've tried doing a search, but have not found anything for my specific questions. Has anyone used the Tuff Country preload spring spacer leveling kit (# 32901)? I'm wanting to know how it turned out? About how much lift did you end up with? Any negatives installing them or after the...
