    2000 24v has lift pump bypassed?

    I have a 2000 24v ram2500. I got a new lift pump but after I moved the filter housing out of the way I noticed that the lift pump isn't bolted to the bracket. There's what looks like the top of the lift pump there without the pump itself, that has both the inlet and outlet hoses plumbed into...

    Just got a 2001 Cummins powered truck, have questions...

    Ok, this truck was a buddies. He had some guy work on it who turned out to be a crackhead thief. The guy scammed him out of 1200 dollars and did nothing but swapped in what may be the wrong ECM. I have what the crackhead SAYS is the stock one, and need to know what ECM SHOUKD be in there. Can I...

    Stock 5x7 door speaker to 6x9?

    Well bass is all relative. Some think their system has no bass without 4 18s some think it had far too much if they have 6 1/5 midbass and a tweeter....And no amp. I am also on a budget but used the Rockford 6x9 three ways their middle of the road level speaker and a set of Hertz tweeters. Just...

    Stock 5x7 door speaker to 6x9?

    Can you support these statements with sonic reference charts using a certified system analyzer or a link to the charts? I'm curious because I'm a television system, and audio system designer, integrator, and engineer and have never heard this.

    Heater Power Circuit - Fusible Link

    When ever I get a used old Dodge truck the FIRST thing I do is replace all the fuse able links with fuse holders and fuses. I had a 1977 Ramcharger I did it first on that is now coming up on the change being 20 years ago and it is still working perfectly with no blown fuses or problems with the...

    Gettin another Ramcharger...well, sort of!

    I got it! 1976, 360, auto, 4x4, 52K original miles, not a single dent, headers and dual exhaust, all original other than the exhaust. Even the back folding seat, and stock roll bar are still in it. The paint is even OK. The project to get it back on the road with all fluids and such changed...

    Lets talk about brakes....

    Yeah, bummer is they don't have brake parts for my truck. But I did come across a place that at least SAYS they do. We shall see. Amazon has them...go figure! Everything from regular rotors to drilled and slotted....

    Lets talk about brakes....

    WHat I'm trying to get is the pedal and feel as well as the performance of my old Chevy truck. It was a 77 and the brakes on it flat out rocked. The pedal was very firm, and even towing a 23ft car trailer they stopped the mass like it was nothing. My old Ramcharger stopped way better than this...

    New Member - looking for info about dad's truck

    The 1979 trucks I've seen had those double rectangular headlights but may have been late 79s early 80s. Just googled 79 dodge truck pics and they all looked like the orange one with the dual rectangular headlights.

    Stock 5x7 door speaker to 6x9?

    I was gonna tell you they were 6x9s but thought you would figure it out yourself. I just upgraded mine to the Rockford middle of the road 3 way 6x9s and a set of remote Hertz tweeters and it rocks.

    Gettin another Ramcharger...well, sort of!

    Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for sure. It's in excellent shape, only has 50K original miles on it and has been used only to plow one of my best freinds Grandmothers driveways (about a mile long way up in the mountains) since 1980 when she bought it from her friend. I go look at it Sunday...

    I began the Instrument cluster upgrade today

    Go to general discussions, then to what did you do to your RAM today, last page has a night pic of the instrument lights to see how bright it is.

    Gettin another Ramcharger...well, sort of!

    It's actually a 1976 Plymouth Trailduster. I go look at it on Saturday. I am getting it from the original owner and hope it's in good shape. Have only seen one pic but it looks pretty much all there and ok form the left side at least! 360, 4bbl, auto, 4x4.

    My tailgate is in need of a fixin

    So if I pull the handle, it works fine except the right side which hangs up so you have to pull up on that little lever to get it to open on that side. How does the tailgate mech work? Anyone have a drawing of it? That way I can either figiure out how to fix mine or start looking for a good...

    Lets talk about brakes....

    Since I couldn't find a specific place for a performance brake question, I'll pos it here but mods please feel free to move it to the right place! I am ANAL when it comes to a good hard brake pedal and brakes that actually STOP you when you apply them without hovering your ass off the seat...

    85 W150 intermittent heater issue

    I guess I got lucky. Mine were doing the same thing and it turned out to be fuseable links on both. I replaced them with actual fuses and it works perfectly and has been for years. I was dreading getting behind the dash till I figured out how totally easy it was. When of course I did my gauge...

    85 W150 intermittent heater issue

    Did you figure out yet it is the friggin fuseable link? At least mine was on my Ramcharger, and the W150 same thing happened to both.

    1982 fuses problems

    Weird. I'm thinking someone rewired something in the lighting circuit and did a crap job. Has it always done this since you got it?

    I began the Instrument cluster upgrade today

    yes, I installed blue/white LED's since they would be much brighter than just blue. They ARE brighrter than stock by I'd have to say 5 times, but they don't dim. At least the high brightness ones I used don't but that's actually OK for me as they still aren't TOO bright. And they will go off if...

    1982 fuses problems

    Yeah, I still say it's a socket that has become rusty or corroded.

    1982 fuses problems

    I think one fuse is for the front and rear turn signals and stop lamps, and another is for headlights. But check the fuse allegation online, it'll pop up on a search.....Mine did but mine is different since it's a 1991
