    OEM Power Windows and Locks- The Almost Complete How-to

    I could be wrong as its been awhile, but the 12-14ga pink/yellow striped wire runs the window motors and is a constant ignition source. Might make sure of that before cutting into anything, and also depending on the draw of power you're needing might not be ideal anyways--Those windows draw a...

    2018 seat into a 2007

    First off welcome to the forum, there's a whole lot of different threads on throwing some 4th gen seats into a 3rd gen. Power movement and lumbar is pretty simple, I had a 12 gauge red and a 12 gauge black wire in the gray/black plug on my '17 seats. If you have that send 12v constant to the red...

    OEM Power Windows and Locks- The Almost Complete How-to

    You will most likely have to replace your dash harness, as that's what connects to the Headlamp-to-Dash harness and probably won't have all the wires needed already. I replaced the door harnesses, the interior cab harness, and the dash harness. As for the Headlamp-to-Dash harness, I'm unsure...

    2006 ram 1500 4.7l to 5.7l

    A guy swapped his 3.7 for a Hemi, which isn't exactly the same but it would be a very similar process. His was also a 2004, which is a good bit different than our 2006s. There would be a bit more programming that would need to be done on our trucks. I linked his thread 2004 Ram 3.7 V6 ---> Hemi...

    Ram Classic Warlock Grille Letters

    If you wouldn't mind that'd be great! Its quite hard to model without a physical model for reference so I'd imagine yours will be much more accurate than anything I could ever make

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    Yeah I don't remember the brand of the old one I had, but this new one is just a Duralast. Probably not the highest quality but lifetime warranty is quite handy to have. I do have a VDO blower motor on the HVAC when that went out about 4 years ago--Been trouble-free so far, but has always been...

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    The '06 starting having some click-no start conditions that progressively got worse, I tracked it down to the starter relay. Luckily on my '06 it was a $20 relay behind the TIPM rather than on the TIPM itself. Soon after the AC condenser fan decided to kill over, so replaced that as well. I...

    Ram Classic Warlock Grille Letters

    I would imagine so--they use the exact same grille and seem to share a part number I personally didn't have any plans to backlight them, I was just going to paint them up similar to the 4th gen Ram TRX concept truck that had the letters with a dark gray front with deep red on the edges. I still...

    Unloaded '06 and Loaded '16

    The Rebel decided to develop a bit of a tick at startup, so I had whatever cheap 5w20 they were putting in there drained and filled it up with Redline 5W30 for peace of mind. I'm hoping over time that tick will begin to quiet down with the RL. Even though its just at startup, it makes me cringe...

    Ram Classic Warlock Grille Letters

    I was actually trying to work on this myself--the letters for my Rebel grille were missing and are on backorder everywhere, so I attempted to design some myself--They aren't perfect by any means and need a bit more work as I didn't have the actual letters in my hand to design the details, but...

    Ram Rebel/Warlock Grille Nameplate

    Got a 2016 Rebel recently with the mustache looking grille, and for some reason the ‘RAM’ lettering that goes on the grille was missing. OEM wise its out of stock, on backorder and have been told the supplier isnt making them anymore so I’m kind of out of luck unless any of you folks happen to...

    Unloaded '06 and Loaded '16

    Haven't done much to the trucks recently besides gave them both a good interior cleaning. Filling up with gas in one truck was bad enough, having to fill up with gas in two trucks is just plain miserable lol The drivers side bottom seat cover is ripped and the dealer wants over $700 bucks to...

    OEM Power Windows and Locks- The Almost Complete How-to

    Bit of an update, all is still working good. I added some Amazon power tow mirrors and they were plug and play. Not sure if the defroster works on them, but the power adjustable part is great to have. Power windows and locks are nice, but the power adjust mirrors are just icing on the cake I...

    TIPM Questions For Body Swap

    I sort of did something like this. My '06 was an ST base model as well and I upgraded to power locks, windows, and mirrors. I believe what you're doing should work relatively well--It would probably be best to keep the different computer modules from your '07 so they match up with your TIPM just...

    Unloaded '06 and Loaded '16

    Ended up picking up a new truck, so I'll be starting up a new thread to keep track of BOTH my trucks and maybe I'll actually keep up with it lol So my older truck is a 2006 Ram 1500 sitting at around 220k miles. Started out as a base-model single cab short bed with the absolute powerhouse 3.7L...

    Curiosity question

    So this particular style on all except like the 2013s? is controlled by a LIN bus on the 4th gens IIRC, so they would be a bit difficult to wire up on their own. One of the guys on this forum made and at one time was selling a kit that came with wiring, fuse/relay box, and everything to make one...

    Does anyone else but me think there are way too many electronics in today's vehicles?

    As a younger guy and a computer nerd (Literally in college for Computer Science and work in IT) I hate what they're doing to cars. After looking at all the identical "minimalist TV-screen" dashboard design that every single new car has nowadays, I don't think I'll be owning anything much newer...

    4th gen fully powered seats swap

    So on my '17 seats, I had a 12 gauge red and a 12 gauge black wire in the gray/black plug on the seats. If you have that send 12v constant to the red and ground the black and that'll give you power movement and lumbar, and as for heated seats thats not something anyone has gotten to work with...

    Curiosity question

    Yep, this guy @Fast69Mopar. He hasn't been on here in a good while but maybe DMing him might work. For the record yes it will bolt up pretty good, but the HVAC systems between 3rd and 4th gens are different and the wiring would be MUCH different. At one point fast69mopar said he basically put a...

    AlfaOBD Support For 06~12 Rams

    Its been a minute since I've been on Alfa so I may be a bit rusty, but you'll have to switch from the "RAM 1500 (DS/DT)" to the "RAM 2500/3500" or something along those lines. Then you should see the option for the 2006-2012.

    Need expert advice on key fab/tipm !

    Did you have a working key fob before they took out the old steering column? If so they probably took out the old steering column and didn't care to pull the perfectly-working SKIM module from your old column, tried to replace it with a new one, and are realizing its not that simple. I don't...

    5th gen 1500 seat swap

    If you get that figured out post it up! Thats something I and quite a few others would possibly be interested in doing as well

    5th gen 1500 seat swap

    If 5th gen seats are anything like 4th gen seats, that yellow connector is primarily for the seat airbag and other less important/irrelevant things for our trucks. I don't have anything plugged into that yellow connector on my 2017 seats, just a 12v constant and a ground going through the other...

    `06 1500 Transmission Issue (big surprise)

    Unless somebody went full stupid and somehow strapped a foreign transmission in there, you'll have a 545RFE. They came in the majority of '02-'08 1500s (Only exceptions are the 2002 5.9s, 06-08 3.7s, and the SRT-10s), with a few PCM programming changes made along the way. They came in the...

    AlfaOBD Support For 06~12 Rams

    On your 2011 did you have to install the RFH or does it come preinstalled on the truck? I'm 99% sure they all come preinstalled on 4th gens but figured I'd best ask anyway. I'd like to add RKE to my '06 but I'd have to install a WCM (3rd gen equivalent to the RFH) myself. Also, did your...
