    I will call Ram in the morning but if they dont have one ill need to use what i can get. I checked the live readout on my scanner and its not showing any fuel pressure so its shot but the truck runs fine.

    P018C fuel pressure sensor

Question is will this affect the truck in anyway by shutting down or going into limp. I will try and find a senor locally tomorrow but if i cant i need to drive...

    Unstable Towing with our 1500

    I never said they can tow anything you want. They certainly tow better than a 1500 , especially with a Cummins. Of course they have door stickers, and the towing and payload ratings are much higher than the 1500. Not sure where I said I was towing 40 grand. Something must have upset you. I do...

    Unstable Towing with our 1500

    I've never had a worse truck for towing than my 4th gen 1500 outdoorsman, crewcab LWB 4x4 with 3.92 gears. To light. Yes they can be set up a little better with special hitches and balancing acts etc but in my opinion for towning get a 2500 or 3500. They have no payload capability whatsoever. My...

    RV Towing Newbie

    Don't even look at a 1500 ram as far as I'm concerned. No payload and hard on fuel. Just last week I used my 1500 outdoorsman, 3.92 gears to take my boat out of storage a 45 min drive from my house. 3700lb boat and though it pulls it fine you can really tell its there and even squats the rear...

    LED lights behind grill

    You mean you replaced your fogs with led lights? Do you happen to have pics? I did see some led fog lights but I'm worried about them being so low and driving on dirt roads they will be covered with dirt and mud real fast.

    LED lights behind grill

    I'm looking to add some LED lights or light bar behind my grill. I have a 2015 1500 outdoorsman with a honeycomb grill. I don't have the gap between the tow hooks like my 3500 did. I drive alot at night back and forth from work, 12 hour trips and mostly at night. I want to leave the active...

    What oil change route to go?

    I dont have access locally, I would need to order it. The reason I didn't this time was the price of the 5w-30 pup. The redline was 140.00 for 7 quarts plus tax and then the 15.00 filter as well. I usually dont care about cost but whith the sale on it was hard to pass up.

    What oil change route to go?

    I'm in Nova Scotia, I was looking for lubegard but the cheapest I found it was 60.00 and not in stock so I went with the redline additive.

    What oil change route to go?

    I will probably just add the additive and use the pup 5w-30.

    What oil change route to go?

    Its oil change time and I have very few options. I have 10 liters of PUP 5w-30, a fram ultra filter on hand, and a bottle of redline break in oil additive (zddp) on the way. I dont have the tick but dont want it either. I just found a source for the SRT 0w-40 oil but at $14.00 a liter , I'm in...

    AC compressor or clutch???

    Well I got my new compressor from rock auto and pulled the old clutch off and went to install the new one and it doesnt fit. The spot that the bearing sits on from the compressor is just a touch to short on the old compressor so the groove that the snap ring goes in is just covered. So now I...

    AC compressor or clutch???

    Yeah it looks like an easy job to replace it I'm just not sure about the air gap. The clutch has a rubber dampener in it I guess and maybe that's what's melted, also the bearing is shit because I can hear the grinding.

    AC compressor or clutch???

    I put a gauge on it and it shows full pressure with the truck off and also with the truck on and the AC running. It sounds like the bearing in the clutch is shot and the rubber burnt up. I can spin the middle of pulley with the truck off. I bought a new compressor with a clutch from rock auto...

    A/C clutch melted !?!

    Did you ever get the clutch replaced. Mine is doing the exact same thing and everywhere I check doesnt list just the clutch, I'd need to buy the whole compressor.

    AC compressor or clutch???

    So I started the truck up one morning and there was no AC. I checked the fuses and then noticed the front if the clutch there was melted rubber and after moving it around the from plate or disc will just move freely. The clutch engages I believe because with the truck running and someone turning...

    How much sag?

    Yeah I think so, I'll still get the air bags in but also have a WD hitch, just need to set it up after the trailer gets delivered.

    How much sag?

    Well I went to buy the trailer. It was a bit lower inside than I liked so I found a totally different one and bought it. It has a dry weight of 6900 but I didn't take it home, needed to be inspected so they are going to deliver it for me. Heavier than I wanted but it Wil pretty much be parked...

    How much sag?

    I believe it is a Reese, still didn't dig it out but it does have the 2 bars and the chains that hook into the brackets then lifted and pinned in place. The hitch I have already has the ball and everything. The trailer isn't coming with a new WD hitch, it's supplied by me. I will also be using...

    How much sag?

    I do have a WD hitch and the bars, I'll set it up the best I can in the parking lot at the dealer, I just can't see the frame of the trailer until I get there, it should fit, the brackets for the bars need to mount to the trailer, I'll meed to dig the hitch out and see if they bolt right through...
