    What tonneau cover do you have?

    I have come to find that the pins locking the cover need a little motivation to seat all the way through. I plan to massage them a little to help them slide more freely and ensure they lock properly without additional help or verification. Once I work on that, which will likely be next spring...

    What tonneau cover do you have?

    I personally prefer Roll-ups to hard or tri-folds, just a personal preference. Had a limited budget for adding a few accessories to the truck when I bought it in late September, so I ended getting what was the cheapest option on Amazon at the time which is a Tyger soft roll-up. Although I have...

    TPMS which ones are compatible

    @Tim7139 : Fully agree with you, but on things connecting to any onboard electronics, it is way too easy to change a few bits to the ecu or other components, so I try to stay as close to oem as possible. I have ordered a bunch of other accessories by selecting stuff for a 2018 though...

    TPMS which ones are compatible

    For those that it might interest the MOPAR part number is 68324960AB. They are currently in shortage, however I was able to source them cheaper on Rock Auto... And by cheaper I mean ½ the price and they are MOPAR OEM... Go figure!

    LED conversion kit review

    Tje one thing I cannot vouch for is durability. That being said, I rarely look at reviews before I buy a product, unless hundreds of mostly bad comments. I will certainly report back if/when they fail so we have an idea about longevity. But for the price so far I am very happy. Stay tuned...

    Is the 2019-2020 Classic considered a 5th or a 4th Gen?

    I am thinking it's probably a Hybrid model with the underside of a 5th Gen and the body of a 4th Gen but I would be curious to know from the experts if anyone knows?

    Not sure if Blazer is still on the forum, but I'd be curious to see what he ended up doing?

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    Conte partiro... Time to say Goodbye... My mom gave me her car as she got a new one... Don't have the space so I am selling the truck. Will be back here though... and hopefully with a new truck in the future. I'll miss the old girl even if she had a temper on occasion.

    Hello and heres what my problem is

    1000$ seems reasonable for HEMI 2500 4x4. The nice thing is that you can consider a CTD swap with a 2500 frame under the truck. Great catch.

    2003 4x4 ram lower ball joint removal question

    Besides it is only 2 more bolts to undo to remove the spindle at this point (Upper Ball Joint and Tie Rod end). That is of course assuming you have already removed the brake calipers and brackets. Make sure you are not letting the calipers hang by the hose. Bungee cords are perfect to hold them...

    Coil pack bolt (or intake) stripped on Cylinder 7

    They have the Delphi on RockAuto and the part number is the one you are showing above, and the coil does look a little different than the OEM one. Before changing the coil at that point I might try putting it in another cylinder to see if the problem follows the coil. I have seen folks that...

    Coil pack bolt (or intake) stripped on Cylinder 7

    I have not had any issues removing the plugs from the boots. The boots do get hard though and I have made sure to use plenty of dielectric grease inside the coil's recess to promote proper contact and prevent moisture from getting in there. If you don't plan on making any performance...

    '05 Ram Quad Door Locks (HELP!)

    We have all (at least most of them) the OEM service and parts manual on the forum : 3rd Gen Service and Parts Manuals The service manual has the detailed wiring diagram. However keep in mind that these schematics cover all the available options and variances so they are a little cryptic to...

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    I would be more worried about help if I break down than a fuel stop... A few jiggers in the bed can secure a few more miles if need be!

    4.7 Head Studs

    Oh sorry then, but as I said I have not found any aftermarket studs of any kind for this application. Also, it is not an area where there is a lot of force applied, so I don't think you would need high end hardware. Ultimately, you could call the folks at ARP directly to see if they have an...

    I'm kind of pissed......

    At the end of the day, my point is as you just mentionned temperature... If the suspension holds the weight, and you can keep operating temperature of the engine tranny and everything else within normal operating limits, there should be absolutely no issues. (Let's not forget the Differential...
