I called dealer and he looked up my vin and said it is pushing it a little over limit and eventually it will wear out the transmission. Also the liability of winds and having an accident.
What are thoughts on 209 -6.7 Diesel?
I upgraded to a 2018 RamBox sport club cab 5.7 bed 5.7 hemi 8 speed. I replaced coil springs and installed timber grove air bags.
Outlaw FlowMaster 3” SS full exhaust ad C&B cold air intake. New 12 ply tires
I currently tow a 23ft Hideout @ 7590 lbs and traded it in for a 24ft 5th wheel Cougar...
It has 8 ply tires and when I tow slow it get 6-9mpg at best. It’s great for in town. I traded it in for a 2018 Ram 1500 gas sport RamBox that has 8 speed and 27k miles on it.Had to buy 10 ply tires and need to get nicer coil springs and we will see what mileage mpg on next trip
My 5.7 Hemi has 73k and runs great with some performance modes. It is a 6 speed and wish I had a 8 speed.
I get 13 mpg on freeway and 6-8 mpg towing 23ft Springdale trailer about 7,000 weight depends on wind and I drive slow up grades.
Is this typical gas Mpg?
Is there any other mods to...
Remote start is working good now, 36 degrees and snow covered truck, remote start activated perfect.
After connecting a new backup camera wire harness, the backup camera works good and it stopped the drain on battery. Once weather is better or I can park in garage, I then can replace faulty wire...
Jawzs2 answered my question of time out between tries on remote start, as truck has plenty of voltage during daytime to start and the parasitic draw stopped.
Thanks
Another Question, is the remote start function programmed to work only 2 times , then key fob has to be inserted in ignition to be able to use remote start again.
I put the battery on Trickle charge for the night and when I checked the battery voltage in the morning it was at 12.44. I returned the battery for an exchange and made sure to bring my voltage meter, and the new one I exchanged for registered at 12.85 voltage.
I believe I solved the voltage...
Sorry, I was posting reply while you sent battery voltage chart reply. I thought 12.49 volts was enough voltage to start with remote start function, but I see that 12.6 is resting volts on battery.
Maybe there is a parasitic draw?
I will try a test and put a trickle charger on it tonight to see...
The key fobs and remote start function worked perfect every time before I put in new battery. I only replaced battery in truck and key fobs thinking this was the issue.
Again, this next morning the remote start failed!! getting only one flash of parking lights. Very frustrating!!
I put meter on...
tank is 3/4 full. I had hood open to change battery. The remote start will work after you insert key and start truck for that day several times. The remote start will not start the next day as it goes in disabled mode after a several hour time period?
What would cause it to work several times...
I have read different difficulties with the remote start not working and my remote has different issues
1-I Start truck manually in morning with key and warm up engine, turn off and lock doors
2-Late in same day I press 2x remote twice running lights flash twice and trucks starts. I put key in...
Yes I wold like to buy the coil springs only and would you happen to have both the upper isolator? I would need to find some.

Thanks Greg

they are Firestone airspring brand and I am removing them and just selling them. They work great for a smooth ride but I need more stiffness for my blue ox tow hitch.
Thanks, I’ll try those suggestions when I find a good coil. Also do I need a special bolt to used to install seat on upper that will not interfere with coil?
I was able to twist it and it moved slightly but would not move up. Need to find a tool to get under the lip to pry. Do you know how tall the seat is to get it off?
Thanks!
Hi Billy’s, yes I would be very interested as I want to go the 1223v with timbrens route. I just need to figure out how to remove the base on the the firestone air springs. I hate to pay somebody. Let me know more on what you have so I know they will fit as I would like to save some $. Attached...
Previous owner had rear coil springs removed and installed firestone air spring bag in its place. I can’t figure out how to remove base? Picture shows the silver base.It has no bolts and must be trick to slip off? It moves slightly when twisted, but is hung up to just pull off?
Thanks for replies
the 2013 big horn 1500 4x4 I bought has installed rear air bags in place rear coil. I understand it was for smooth ride, but not meant to town trailer as rear end sags with 80 psi in each bag. Getting mixed advice on coil replace ment, loocal spring shop says 800 lb spring is all you need , tuff...
