    "Green" A/C???

    Refrigerant isn’t the issue. It’s the HVAC box allowing hot air in with the cold air. You’ll notice on a 60 degree day with the temp set to cold with AC off you’ll get warm air from the vents still. If you have a 2500/3500 you’ll have R134A anyways. If you have a 19 or 20 there’s a TSB to fix it.

    End of Lease - ugh

    I’d keep it. 3 years and 18k is more than enough to work out the gremlins.

    Such an average AC

    I have a 2500 so we still get R134 refrigerant. My dealer just did the TSB for the 2019/2020 trucks and my AC is great now. I’ve always had to run it on max to stay somewhat comfortable and now it freezes you out with an outside temp in the mid 90s. For what it’s worth my 2018 Subaru has the...

    6.4 Hemi w/4.10s or Cummins?

    There’s an intrinsic value to just being able to drive it and not worry about emissions failures or bad fuel. I think I would have a diesel if it wasn’t for finicky emissions.

    2022 2500 running boards

    No changes for 2022. Running boards for 2010+ should fit.

    6.4 Hemi w/4.10s or Cummins?

    In Iowa I believe it. We have too much elevation change and wind here in central Oregon. You’re either going up or down and half the time there is a steady head wind.

    Has anyone leveled a dually with the rear air ride? Also Dually MPG after installing larger tires. How much did it decrease?

    You won’t see any improvement with a heavier tire with aggressive tread.

    6.4 Hemi w/4.10s or Cummins?

    If you haven’t changed the tire size in the BCM you really need to. It makes a difference. Also the truck really wakes up after you get some miles on it.

    6.4 Hemi w/4.10s or Cummins?

    6.4, 8 speed, 4.10 gears, and 35s here. I average 13.5 overall and regularly pull down 15 on the highway. It’s a great truck, drives nice, and handles a load well. More than enough power. The 8 speed auto really made a difference. The old 6 speed is pretty terrible.

    New 2500 Tradesman with clunk/rattle

    I haven’t heard a clunk since I removed my hitch. I’ll get some pops once in a while when off pavement and maxing the front suspension out but that’s pretty normal.

    Truck rolls side to side under load

    Kind of the nature of the beast with the coil sprung 2500. Before I leveled my truck it took over 4000lbs in the bed for the truck to squat enough to be level but it definitely wasn’t as stable. The issue is the track bar geometry and the coil springs sit inboard on the frame. Airbags or...

    Level Kit for 2021 2500

    Spacers are a janky way to level a truck. Thuren 2” coils and Fox shocks are awesome.

    2500 - Do I want the 3.73 or 4.10?

    I have 4.10s and am very happy with the truck. I put 35” Toyo AT3s on it and other than riding better than the stock Transforce tires I’ve noticed no difference in power.

    5000lb trailer/550lb tongue weight

    1500 will do that without issue.

    How To DIY Fold Flat Floor

    How is the floor secured inside the truck? I’m building something a little different, just wide enough to mount my fridge and still fit under the seat.

    POST YOUR LIFTED 2500

    Thuren 2” coils and Fox shocks on the front, stock rear suspension. Sitting on F load rated Toyo ATIII 35x12.50 on stock 18” wheels. Love it.

    On a budget, help make this 21 Laramie 1500 cool

    Bronze 18” Methods and some AT tires would really change the look.

    You’re old truck did not get 14 mpg towing. The dash lies.

    Any cam or manifbolt issues on the new hemis?

    Manifold bolts are an issue on all big 3 V8 engines with aluminum heads. It just happens. The 6.4 is a solid engine with few issues. It is also noisy, especially cold. Use the correct oil and send it. Don’t be one of those who uses Euro spec 0w40 and expect no issues long term.

    seat vinyl not covered by warranty??

    Armor All is a terrible product. If that is vinyl I would use 303 Protectant on it.

    Thuren Leveling Kit 2019 Ram 2500

    Snow Chief springs are stiffer to support the plow weight. If you’re not plowing get a set of Thuren coils and shocks.

    Tire pressure 2500 Crew cab?

    That’s not the manufacturers fault. Blame the people who never check their tires, had blow outs due to under inflation, and crashed. Now it’s federal law that the TPMS needs to be set for the capacity of the truck. Fortunately for the price of a Bluetooth OBDII dongle, security bypass cable...

    Ceramic Coating vs PPF

    I love the interior on the 5th gen 2500. The rear seat isn’t as spacious as the 1500 but it works. There are enough differences that the 4th gen mud flaps will not fit however Weathertech and Husky make them for the 5th gen with flares.
